n 2008 Domaine du Tariquet Classic, $7.99 One of the great palate-pleasing discoveries of the last few years are these delicious, refreshing whites from the Armagnac region of France. That’s right, from the same region that produces the bold, fiery Armagnac comes the simple "cocktail" wine made from the Ungi Blanc and Colombard grapes. Fans of Loire Valley whites or the aroma-driven wines of Viognier or Torrentes will love the 2008 Tariquet Classic. Try with shellfish, or I like to serve it chilled as an aperitif before dinner.
