Defines a certain style of Sauvignon Blanc, namely the bone-dry, ultracrisp version whose firm structure frames a bright, zesty taste. The flavors are of lemons, limes, grapefruits, figs, white pepper and minerals, with a rich grassiness. This Loire-like wine is so versatile, you can have it with almost anything.

A remarkably juicy, berry, cherry Zin that’s fully in balance and easy to drink, not to mention a great price.

With a little Columbard, Viognier and Chardonnay, plus 2% other unnamed varieties, this sure is fruity. It’s a simple, charming glassful of apples, peaches, figs, melons and grapefruits; dry and well-acidified.

Scores high on the deliciousness factor. It’s just loaded with blackberry pudding, cassis, milk chocolate and licorice flavors, and it finishes soft and dry. Sure, it’s not a First Growth, but it offers real Cabernet pleasure at an everyday price.

Sugary sweet and simple, with candied, jellied flavors of peaches and oranges.

Very sweet, more of a dessert wine than a dry table wine, with sugary flavors of yellow apricots, peaches, apples and honeysuckle flowers.

Not much going on in this inexpensive wine. It’s watery, with a sugary, soda pop sweet finish.

Tastes jammy sweet and bubble gummy, with the gassiness of a Beaujolais Nouveau. It’s more full-bodied than that, of course, with black cherry flavors.

This is a basic, everyday Sauvignon Blanc, affordably priced and juicy, with semi-sweet tropical fruit, fig, apple and spice flavors. Sourced from the Sacramento Delta and the Central Valley, it’s another Gallo brand that delivers value.

Juicy and sweet in cherry jam, licorice, chocolate and smoky vanilla flavors, this Merlot also has a smooth, supple texture. It’s a fine example of a country-style wine.
