Though labeled varietally, almost a quarter of the blend is Malbec, along with a two percent splash of Syrah. Herbal and showing scents of stem along with peppery black fruits, this tannic and inexpensive red would be a fine match for a pot roast or stew. Black olive and smoke flavors weave into the finish.

There’s a lightly spritzy tickle in the mouth, and a metallic undertaste to this Chardonnay. The blend includes 5% each Pinot Gris and Sauvignon Blanc, all done in stainless steel. Thin and a bit green, it does not quite come together.

This is simple, pleasant, with whispers of melon, apple and even celery, set against light acids and herbs.

For its introductory Washington Cabernet Sauvignon, Buried Cane (a new brand from Vintage New World) seems to have modeled itself on a modest Bordeaux. Astringent, smoky and showing a fair amount of green tannin, this dry and herbal wine has the muscle to show well with grilled meats, burgers, even steak. On its own, it’s a bit tiring, with a lot of herbal character.

Light and juicy, with fresh apple flavors and good acidity. A good wine for serving chilled and enjoying outdoors.

A good, clean, tart and lightly spicy all-stainless style. Cool climate fruit puts the accent on lime and lemon flavors, keeps the alcohol low (13.3%), and makes this a fine match to shellfish, white fish and light pasta dishes.

Just barely perceptible residual sugar, along with plenty of acidity, keeps this on the edge of dry. A pretty, floral nose introduces a palate with mango, peach and cinnamon-dusted pear fruit. Nicely balanced with good concentration and length.

This Rhône red puts lots of toasty goodness around light fruit from a blend of Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Counoise grapes. Soft and generous, it starts with watermelon and ends with black cherries, all coated with mocha and cinnamon. What’s not to like?
