Backhouse 2010 Chardonnay
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $7
An incredibly fair price for a fairly low in alcohol (12%) Chardonnay sourced from throughout California. The wine veers tropical but also exhibits plenty of green apple, lemon and honey. Mellow on the finish and all-around easy to drink.

Backhouse 2009 Pinot Grigio
- Best Buy
- $6
A good buy for a white wine that’s dry, clean and crisply acidic. The flavors are fine, of lemons, limes and tart Mandarin oranges.

Backhouse 2009 Chardonnay
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $6
Easily the best Chardonnay in California at this price. Shows creamy, vibrant flavors of pineapples, green apples, buttered toast and buttered popcorn, cleansed with a scour of acidity. From veteran négociant Ceccheti.

Backhouse 2009 Pinot Noir
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $6
Marked by sharp acidity, jagged tannins and some green flavors, this is pretty standard stuff. That being said, it’s the best Pinot Noir at this price in California. Dry and silky, with raspberry, cola and black tea flavors.

Backhouse 2010 Pinot Noir

Barely drinkable, although you’ll get by at big parties where nobody cares. It’s silky, sweet and minty.
