($12, Frederick Wildman): The vast majority of wines from the Languedoc are red. But Hecht et Bannier has managed to find growers who make fresh and lively whites. A blend of Piquepoul (80%), which provides invigorating freshness, and Roussanne, which adds body, it’s a pleasant surprise, coming from this warm part of France. It would be a good foil for sushi. 87 Michael Apstein Nov 6, 2012
