Thats actually not true, there are whites that age. Its all about the fruit/alcohol consistency, its no different than the reds.
Cooking wines are particular, you cant just take a white off the rack and use it to cook. :p
Pink, as far as whites... Napa Valley, Dry Creek Valley and Russian River Valley (as well as Sonoma Coast and Williamette Valley for Pinot Noir) seem to have the top rated stuff lately |
