($20):  Though the Languedoc may be best known for its red wines, the whites have gotten better.  Take this one, for example.  Surprisingly fresh and lively for its southern origins, it delivers lovely weight and texture.  It’s a blend of Grenache Blanc and Roussanne that conveys a hint of stone fruit flavors with a lovely citrus tang.  Its lively essence allows you to enjoy it as a stand-alone sipper and with reasonably weighty seafood.
