Napa Valley Chenin Blanc – Top Pick of the Week
We have two wines to recommend from two very old and small California wineries.

This is a terrific deal for this wonderful blend from Mendoza in Argentina. It is 40% Malbec, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 30% Merlot. I found this wine to be loaded with plum and spice characteristics, and it leaves a beautiful texture in the mouth. It has a great finish and all this for a measly $12.99. Continue reading

Bargain wine picks for the first week of 2012
At the Redwood City K&L Wines, the Deligeroy is a “Staff Pick.” I never really know if this is just a marketing ploy or if the staff really loves the wine. In this case, the staff is right on about this sparkler. It is a little different than most sparkling wines but something quite enjoyable. Continue reading
Buehler Vineyards – Two red wines top our bargain wine picks of the week.
John Buehler, Jr. and his family are committed to producing excellent wines but keeping prices affordable. Because they have been in the Napa Valley so long, the cost of their operations is not as high as most wineries. Kudos to Buehler Vineyards for keeping their wine prices in check. These two wines could easily sell for more. Continue reading

This is fabulous wine from the Colchagua Valley in Chile. I visited this winery in 2009 and every aspect of winemaking here is top notch. It is amazing that Montes can produce a wine at this ridiculous price. Continue reading
