There may be a little oak on this Chard, but the fruit really stars. The apple, peach and apricot flavors are perked up by crisp acidity, and the alcohol is a refreshingly low 13%. This is a good price for a wine of this quality.

Sneak this one into a blind tasting of Cabs costing twice as much and it will hold its own. It’s smooth and opulent, with oak-kissed blackberry, licorice, tobacco and mocha flavors and rich tannins, and the finish is dry and balanced.

Earthy and simple, with a taste of canned peach juice.

You’ll find lots of Cabernet character in this ripe, fruity wine. It has polished cherry-berry, coffee and herb flavors, with a smattering of oak, and is dry and balanced.

They kept the alcohol moderate, but at the obvious cost of residual sugar. This overtly sweet wine tastes like the old kosher stuff I grew up with.

Common and rustic, this is a Chard that is properly fruity, although it has some vegetal flavors.

Fans of oak and fruity tropical flavors will appreciate the price on this well-organized, everyday Chard. It shows pineapple custard, vanilla yogurt and cinnamon spice flavors wrapped into a dry, creamy texture set off by high acidity.

You’ll find plenty of ripe, forward Chardonnay fruit in this dry, affordable wine. It’s packed with pineapple, mango, peach, pear and oakspice flavors, in a creamy-smooth package.

Super-oaky, with what smells and tastes like heavy char that gives it a burnt, ashy note, although there are some decent peach flavors.
