Great price for a Chard of this quality. Dry, crisp and amply flavored in peaches and cream, tangerines and buttered toast, it has the richness of more costly wines.

With mostly Chardonnay and a little of the Symphony grape, this is a fruity, deliciously gulpable wine showing intense peach, pear, apple and vanilla-cinnamon flavors.

A nice followup to the winery’s 2005, the ’06 shows similar richness at the same price. It’s expressive in ripe pineapple, peach jam and honey flavors, with buttered toast and smoky oak overtones.

With that sharp, raw aroma and juicy, freshly picked berry flavor that young rustic red wines often have, this dry Merlot cries out for a juicy burger. Both the food and the wine will be elevated.

A rustic, drinkable wine, not without its innocent charms. Lodi brings cherried ripeness. Monterey provides the acids. It’s a good marriage at a fair price.

Sharp, dry and rustic, this is a blend of Cabernet, Cab Franc and Souzao, grown in Lodi and Monterey. It’s the kind of wine created to wash down simple fare.
