In addition to the wines paired with this menu, these three bottles are also worth seeking out.
1998 WENTE SAUVIGNON BLANC $10 This signature Sauvignon is crisp and clean, with lemon and grapefruit flavors. A first-rate aperitif.
1996 WENTE RIVA RANCH RESERVE CHARDONNAY $16 A fairly full-bodied Chardonnay, with soft creamy oak and melon flavors.
1996 MURRIETTA'S WELL VENDIMIA RED $30 This elegant Bordeaux-style blend (with a touch of Zinfandel) is the product of a partnership between the Wente and Traverso families. It simply explodes with rich, ripe red fruit, from the all-enveloping nose to the long-lasting finish. --Lettie Teague
