Best White Wine Rated 90+ Points For Every Budget

White wine, just like red, is grown all over the globe. Although Chardonnay is, generally speaking, the most popular white wine, many varieties are worthy of tasting as they hold just as much potential for aging and complexity. Likely we will all only encounter a handful of the hundreds of varietals that exist, such as Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio and Riesling. Browse the best White Wine rated 90+ points at WineOnTheWay.com. (Read More)

Although a handful of varietals are more common, there are so many others to choose from; with so many varieties of white wine to choose from, wading through all of the many choices can be a daunting task, especially when buying online. To ensure you buy the best white wine, be sure to browse our 90+ rated white wine selections and read expert descriptions about each bottle written by our resident wine experts.

albarino burgans 2011

2011 Burgans

"Pale gold. Powerful scents of pineapple, mango and white flowers, with a chalky overtone. Supple and round in the mouth, offering juicy tropical fruit flavors and a bracing note of lemon zest. The floral note comes back on the long, broad finish."

verdejo naia 2011

2011 Bodegas Naia

"Light gold. Tightly wound citrus and mineral aromas are complemented by chalky minerals and white flowers. Sharply defined lime and orange zest flavors gain heft with air, taking a turn to pear and nectarine while retaining focus. Finishes refreshingly brisk and long, with resonating spice and mineral notes."

chardonnay novellum 2011

2011 Novellum

"Competes with some of the finest Macon-Villages wines one can find. It is made from 100% Chardonnay, and, somewhat innovatively, is aged on Viognier lees which gives it a honeysuckle and white peach-scented nose. This crisp, fresh, medium-bodied effort exhibits a brisk, zesty, authoritatively flavored character from the cool, alluvial soils on the banks of the Aigly River."

2010-foxglove-chardonnay-edna-valley-california-white-wine-750ml-thumb.jpg

2010 Foxglove

"One of the top values in California wine. It possesses tons of ripe, varietal fruit in a style that is quite rich but not heavy. Clean citrus and floral notes add freshness on the long finish. Lees stirring gives the wine much of its richness, while aging in steel helps maintain freshness. There is remarkable depth and textural finesse here, never mind a price that is mind-boggling for this level of quality. They clearly have the magic touch. These are among the finest values readers will find anywhere in the world."

godello sabrego 2010

2010 Bodegas Rafael Palacios

"Light gold. An aromatic nose is dominated by lanolin, dried flowers and citrus peel. Quite taut and energetic on the palate, with impressive cut to the lemon, spice and mineral flavors. The sappy, dry finish shows very good clarity and lingering spiciness. This energetic wine would be great with simply prepared shellfish."

albarino columna 2011

2011 Columna

"A terrific Albarino from vineyards planted in 1978 on granite and slate-based soils, the 2011 Columna Albarino exhibits exotic notes of pineapples, white peaches and honeysuckle, fresh acids, and medium-bodied, intense, concentrated, alluring flavors."

verdejo nisia 2011

2011 Nisia

"The wine is aged sur-lie, and fermented in both stainless steel and large format French oak. It is undeniably one of the finest Verdejos I have ever tasted. Yields were less than three tons of fruit per hectare, which is noticeable in the wine’s old vine intensity. Notions of caramelized white citrus and tropical fruit blossoms along with a naked, natural texture as well as finish make for a terrific dry white with loads of personality and complexity. This beauty sells for an absurdly low price."

fume blanc robert mondavi 2010

2010 Robert Mondavi

"This is a delicious one. Dry and racy in acidity, it has deep citrus, tropical fruit and gooseberry flavors. At this price, it’s one of the best Sauvignon Blancs on the market."

moscastel bodegas botani 2011

2011 Jorge Ordonez & Co Botani

"Their harvest remarkably begins in July to capture the fresh, incredibly perfumed fruit of this varietal. It is then fermented totally in stainless steel, making it one of the most perfumed, naked expressions of dry white wine in the world.This is a killer example that people just love. Let me see if I can properly describe it. The exotic aromatics could fill a small room, with notes of flowers, honeyed white citrus, melons and hints of more exotic tropical fruit such as mango and tangerine."

sauvignon blanc heritance 2010

2010 Heritance

"Made without oak, this is a beautiful, stylish and elegant young wine to drink now. Blended with some Sémillon for buttery fat, it highlights lime, green grass, white peach and white pepper flavors, brightened with brisk acidity. Achieves an unusual level of control and complexity, especially at this price."

chardonnay spring seed four o

2010 Spring Seed Wine Company

"Light gold. Fresh citrus fruits and green apple on the nose, plus deeper notes of anise and peach pit. Juicy pit fruit flavors are reined in by tangy acidity and become spicier with air. Lively and precise chardonnay with good finishing clarity and a persistent lemon zest quality. No oak was used for this wine either."

chardonnay calera 2010

Thank you for buying us out!

Thank you for buying us out!

2010 Calera

"Josh Jensen makes this wine from a collection of vineyard sources in Monterey and Santa Clara counties. It's bright and citrusy with fresh scents of Mandarin orange and lemon, a lusty undertow of smoke pulling back on all the fruit. Clean and vinous, this is a zesty white."

sauvignon blanc tabali talinay 2011

2011 Tabali

"Sourced from a single vineyard planted on limestone and located just a few miles from the Pacific Ocean. It offers up an alluring perfume of grapefruit, spring flowers, and a note of herbs. This is followed by a crisp, lively, concentrated wine that delivers more complexity and length than the Reserva bottling."

chardonnay baileyana firepeak 2009

2009 Baileyana

"The brighter, fresher side of California Chardonnay comes through in this effort. Clean mineral notes frame hints of lemon, crushed rocks and white flowers in this vibrant, beautifully focused wine. This is a terrific showing."

albarino pazo senorans 2011

2011 Pazo Senorans

"Pale gold. Intensely perfumed bouquet of lime zest, lemongrass, talc, white pepper and chamomile. Sappy orchard fruit and melon flavors are braced by tangy citrus fruits and dusty minerals, with a touch of tropical fruits emerging on the back half. Dry, focused and deeply fruity, finishing with impressive clarity and mineral cut."

chardonnay marimar estate acero 2010

2010 Marimar Estate

"It’s unbelievable that this Chardonnay is unoaked, it’s so incredibly rich and creamy. Just packed with layers of tropical fruits, peaches, Asian pears and oatmeal cookies. All that butter and cream must be from the malolactic fermentation and aging on the lees. One of the best unoaked Chardonnays ever."

molamatta marco felluga 2009

2009 Marco Felluga

"Takes shape beautifully in the glass, with the French oak adding volume but not heaviness to the fruit. Flowers, earthiness, licorice and white peaches are some of the many notes that are woven into the textured finish."

chardonnay gallo signature 2010

2010 Gallo

"Exhibits copious aromas of honeysuckle, orange marmalade, poached pears and buttered citrus in a medium to full-bodied, fresh, ripe format. Drink it over the next several years."

chardonnay saintsbury carneros 2010

2010 Saintsbury

"There’s a bit of oak here, but not too much, giving a smoky, buttered toast richness to the orange, lime and pineapple fruit. It’s a rich, flashy effort, with crisp acidity and a clean, spicy finish."

2011-cloudy-bay-sauvignon-blanc-marlborough-new-zealand-white-wine-750ml-thumb.jpg

2011 Cloudy Bay

"Focused and pure, offering a tangy expression of balanced lemon, white peach, tangerine, passion fruit, melon and green tea notes. This is powerful in its persistence and juiciness, yet maintains an air of elegance."

chardonnay melville estate 2011

2011 Melville

"Bright yellow-gold. Musky pit fruits on the nose, brightened by subtle anise and floral scents. Chewy, faintly bitter orange pith, peach and tarragon flavors are broad and deep but are brightened by a dusty mineral nuance. Finishes with very good breadth and a lingering note of bitter herbs."

chablis jean paul droin vaillons 2011

2011 Jean Paul Droin

"Takes hold of the palate and never lets up. It boasts gorgeous persistence in an understated style that is hugely appealing. The 20% oak is very nicely integrated."

2009-inama-vigneto-du-lot-soave-classico-veneto-italy-white-wine-750ml-thumb.jpg

2009 Inama

This gorgeous Soave Classico boasts barrique-inspired aromas of toasted almond and vanilla cream with loads of mature melon, peach, apricot and honey. The wine opens with a bright golden color and offers a silky, smooth feeling on the close.

chardonnay etude 2010

2010 Etude

"This is a gorgeous wine laced with crushed rocks, green pears and lemon. The aromas and flavors are all bright and focused in this vibrant, taut Chardonnay. Winemaker John Priest blocks the malo on this, which helps preserve freshness and bring forward tons of aromatic nuance."

chardonnay freestone 2009

2009 Joseph Phelps

"Pale, bright, green-tinged yellow-gold. Ripe apricot and orange blossom aromas, with deeper notes of mirabelle, honey, white chocolate and spicy oak. Round and spicy, with very good depth and palate presence. Fruit cocktail and sexy oak flavors are nicely supported by a mineral firmness. Finishes with a lightly tannic impression and very good length."
