Tried these two whites last night:
1. Dom.Vetriccie IGP: Ile de Beaute/Corsica (12%; Chard blend; CruSlctns/Woodinville/WA 2022: Pale yellow color; pleasant melony/Chard slight floral/hollyhocks/appley light chalky/mineral quite pretty nose; slightly soft fairly strong appley/melony/Chard slight floral/hollyhocks bit chalky/mineral somewhat lightweight pleasant flavor; med.light appley/chalky finish that mimics flavor; a pretty/pleasant little white at a very fair price.$17.00 (AV)

2. Tatomer Riesling KickOnRanch/SantaBarbaraCnty (10.2%; 210 cs; RS: 7.0 gm/100ml) 2021: Light gold color; fairly fragrant very floral/R/mango/pineapply maybe slight botrytis/peachy rather ripe quite attractive nose; bit soft rich/lush very ripe/R/pineapple/mango light botrytis/peachy slight chalky rather sweet flavor; very long fairly sweet pineapply/R/mango finish that tracks flavor; a quite pleasant very ripe R with maybe a slight botrytis; one of the better Tatomers but no great shakes as a BA R. $27.50/hlf (KK)

More steadlefirk from TheBloodyPulpit:
1. One of the better Tatomers I've tried. But like many of their whites, they lack in intensity & grip. I've wanted so much to like the Tatomers, but they always leave me a bit wanting for more.
