From the folks who invented white Zinfandel, a freshly fruity, soft, slightly sweet wine with high enough acidity to keep it from palling. The color is pale pink, and the aromas recall red raspberries and peaches.

Fairly fresh and flowery in the nose, with a hint of banana. The flavor profile is built on apple and melon, while the finish is surprisingly clean and lengthy. The feel, however, is a bit soft and low-acid.

It has a deep, candy-red color, but the nose is anything but candied, showing aromas of green olives, herbs and blackberries. Salivatingly tart and only slightly sweet. The flavors are a combination of green olive and iced tea with lemon. It’s not subtle, and would probably work with Buffalo wings.

A blast of clean, ripe citrus, peach and pear fruit greets you from this well-made, if simple, wine. There are vanilla and smoke elements from wood. It’s a little soft, and a tad off-dry, but if you need a case of something white to quench the throats of party-goers who aren’t real particular, this is the ticket.

Clean and simple, this wine is very dry and crisp. It has pleasant lemon, lime and grapefruit flavors and refreshing acids.

Restrained, lean, subtle black-fruit nose. Soft, round, elegant fruit flavors. Very accessible, with nuances of black cherries. True Pinot Noir character. For drinking now and within the next year, perhaps two at most.

Strong, spicy and ripe. Rustic and hot, with notes of burnt rubber in the aroma and taste. A decent inexpensive varietal wine for the masses.

Could be the lowest-priced Shiraz in California. Has berry aromas, but with a sharp, herbaceous or vegetal edge, and a green streak. Medium-bodied and tannic. Finishes rough.

A fine Chardonnay with character and zest. Has pretty green-apple and peach aromas and flavors, and is well balanced; even has some toasty notes. Finishes a little sweet and flat, but overall it’s got to be one of the best Chardonnay values in the world. Best Buy.

This simple country wine steps up to the plate with jammy berry flavors and sharp acids to cut through cheese. It’s very dry.
