A beautiful Sauvignon Blanc that does everything you want with this variety. It’s basically dry and crisp in acidity, with polished flavors of lemongrass, pineapple tart, vanilla, buttered toast and steely minerals. Really nice wine at a great price.

Lots to like with this polished Syrah. It’s dry and soft, with savory flavors of black currants, bacon, sandalwood and peppery spices. Drink now.

A polished, friendly wine, soft and gentle in the mouth, and carrying ripe flavors of cherries, black raspberries, mocha, bacon and pepper. Nice now if you want a dry, medium-bodied red. Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre.

A bit on the light, herbal side, but elegant and balanced, showing tobacco and sage-infused blackberry and cherry flavors. Drink now.

Ultraripe in all sorts of fruity flavors, notably pear, and with a rich application of smoky oak, this wine will appeal to fans of big, unctuous Chards. It’s spicy and long on the finish, too.

This newish appellation, located in the Delta, has been busy promoting itself lately for inexpensive, sound wines just like this. All stainless steel, it’s tasty and balanced, with ripe pink grapefruit, apricot, apple, fig, melon and spice flavors, offset by refreshing acidity.

Sweet and simple, with pleasantly exotic flavors of pineapples, green apples, pears, honeysuckle flowers, minerals, spices, vanilla, brown sugar and smoky oak. Easy to drink.

This everyday sort of wine has pleasant berry and herb flavors, and is dry and clean. It’s the kind of wine you get by the glass in an inexpensive restaurant.
