  1. $8
A floral nose of violets offers an intriguing start to a wine that’s both a value and a fun find. On the palate, red wild berry, spice and smoke are balanced, and though this has a rusticity that tells of its terroir, overall, it’s simply pretty.

  • Best Buy
  1. $8
Dark red at the rim with cigar-box aromas, this wine packs plenty of fruit for the buck. Cassis, plum and raspberry all vie for attention in the mouth; while it’s a bit sweet, the wine has plenty of tannin and acidity to back it up. Finishes with chocolate notes.
