Pretty rich for the price, with deep blackberry, cherry, plum and chocolate flavors that finish very dry and smooth.

Quite a good Cab for this everyday price. It’s dry and smooth, with ripe flavors of blackberries, cherries, dark chocolate and oak. Easy to like because of the balance.

Kind of rough around the edges, with a bit of residual sweetness and a few unripe notes. But it drinks much fruitier and friendlier than it sounds, and that makes it a pretty good value in a sandwich wine.

Hard to find much to like with this sharply acidic, green young wine. Has flavors of wintergreen and fennel, with a touch of cherry juice.

A drinkable Merlot at this price is noteworthy; this one, with its aromas of berries, toast and herbs—even tomatoes—will make lots of friends. Tart cherry-berry fruit and earth is smooth on the palate and blends in some tea notes on the abbreviated finish. Best Buy.

Weak and vegetal, with just the barest note of Chardonnay juice, this is a pretty forgettable wine.

Opens with light cream aromas, which turn woody after a few minutes. Oak reigns on the palate, backed by blackberry and a slightly artificial grape note. Creamy in the mouth, but not rich, it closes with green herb and tobacco notes, plus a twinge of plastic. —D.M.

Stainless steel fermented and unoaked, this Chard is simple in structure, with peach, citrus and spice flavors and a dry finish.

Lithe and nicely balanced, this flavorful wine shows a red berry-herb bouquet and a pleasingly dry, gently spicy palate. The mouthfeel is good, and shows some texture despite the fact that it’s light-weight on the palate. An interesting chalk note comes in on the back end of this pleasant, easy-drinking surprise.

Pretty good for the price, with real varietal character. Dryness and acidity bracket the citrus and pepper flavors, which are entirely unoaked, and the finish is tangy clean.
