This is open and likeable, with forward aromas of fresh red apple slices, white pineapple cores and green-melon rind. It’s brisk and clean on the palate, with good cut and freshness to the fruity core. A touch of herbaceousness adds character to the lingering finish.  — L.B.  (11/1/2012)

  • Best Buy
  1. $9
A full style of wine, named after the home of the Jordan family, who produce this wine. It is packed with great acidity balancing nutty fruit flavors. A touch of vanilla comes through, leaving a wine that is generous and full, but still leaves a fresh, crisp aftertaste. Imported by Vinnovative Imports.  — R.V.  (11/15/2005)

A lovely blend of 77% Sauvignon Blanc and 23% Chenin Blanc, this light and lively wine is direct and focused, with good briskness to the green plum, fig and pear notes. A touch of floral character adds depth to the bouquet, while a lemon rind bitterness unfolds on the end.  — L.B.  (5/1/2012)

Bradgate 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon-Merlot-Shiraz Red (Stellenbosch)

  1. $15
Glimmers of wet rocks and pencil shavings inflect the blackberry and cassis elements of this wine, adding depth and interest. Soft herbal characteristics and green tannins result in an overall austere texture, finishing tight and grippy.  — L.B.  (11/1/2012)
