Grandmaster Pinot Noir
Edna Valley, California
$14.99 / bottle |
Bright cherry fruit, a hint of cinnamon spice in an easy-drinking, medium bodied Pinot. This is an easy "anytime" red - goes great with a variety of foods, and works well as a stand-alone drink, too. |

Chateau du Pin
Bordeaux, France
$11.99 / bottle |
Fairly firm and structured, with tart blackberry and cassis flavors. A hint of earthiness on the finish gives it a real Bordeaux character. Serve this with a roast chicken or red meat. |

Trenel Beaujolais Village
Beaujolais, France
$14.99 / bottle |
Don't let the word "Beaujolais" throw you off - this wine has almost nothing to do with the boring old Nouveau that makes the rounds every November! Complex and fruity, it has aromas of brambly wild berries with hints of earth. It's a lighter red that's very versatile, and can be paired with all kinds of different food - you can even serve it with a slight chill! |

Domaine Laballe Sables Fauves
Landais, France
$11.99 / bottle |
Sauvignon blanc lovers take note - this quirky blend from the south of France is for you! There's a lot going on here, with citrus, herbal and mineral aromas all mixed in together. Crisp and clean, it's incredibly sophisticated for the price. |

31st State Chardonnay
California
$11.99 / bottle |
Tropical and fruity, with notes of vanilla and spices, this is a great all-around chardonnay, with just the slightest hint of oak. A chardonnay that everyone can enjoy. |

Domaine l'Enclos
Gascony, France
$9.99 / bottle |
Since the first time we tasted this, it has been a favorite of ours for its great value - and the Boston Globe agrees, naming it one of its top picks for wines under $12 in its Plonkapalooza 2011 feature. Bright and lively, with tart peach and lemon flavors and a dash of minerals. A delicious everyday white. |
