It's great to be well-stocked on “any night” wines for whenever the occasion arises. But there's no reason to skimp on taste for the sake of affordability. Our latest Tasting Highlights features a mix of red, white and sparkling wines priced less than $35. There’s even a canned wine for fans of single-serving options.
Two Washington state Bordeaux blends are among the outstanding-rated wines here: Gorman’s The Devil You Know red leads with Merlot, and it is expressive and refined while building richness on the finish. Sleight of Hand Cellars' supple and fruit-forward The Spellbinder bottling is Cabernet Franc–dominant and made in an approachable style using foudres and neutral oak barrels, allowing its blueberry and cherry flavors to shine.
This lineup also includes Mumm Napa's Brut Rosé Napa County NV, a brisk sparkler with cherry and and citrus notes. Read on to get our score and ful tasting not efor this fantastic West Coast value wine and seven others.
