Depends on the vineyard. For Chardonnay I like Toasted Head or Black Opal. For Pinot Grigio, my current favorite is Cavit.

Yum! White wine! I like them all!

However, wine--even just a little bit--tends to give me a headache, so I choose beer.

Of the two - Pinot. I think it's harder to find a decent Chardonnay.

Agree with DukeUsul on the Savignon Blanc.

That said - I prefer red wines.

I love em both! Kelly tends to lean towards Chardonnay and I like Pinot Grigio. I won't turn either down.

And the best ones are from New Zealand. Nothing beats a nice NZ SB with some marinated grilled chicken and a salad for a nice healthy summer dinner.

Neither. Pinot is way too sweet, chardonnay doesn't do anything for me. Basically see what I said in the red wine thread.

Pinot Grigios vary considerably in sweetness or dryness. Cavit Pinot Grigio is a drier white.

Have you tried the Spinyback? A great summer wine - nice hint of grapefruit.
