It’s not called Champagne because it’s not from the eponymous region, but Crémant de Loire hails from the stunning Loire Valley of France. Made from Chenin Blanc grapes in a dry – or Brut – style, it’s an elegant sparkler. When it comes to value for the money, you can’t beat this bubbly beauty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"https://www.ponzivineyards.com/product/2016-Ponzi-Arneis-Copy\">2017 Ponzi Vineyards Arneis, Chehalem Mountains, Willamette Valley, Oregon\u003c/a> $27\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nPonzi ranks at the top of my must-know wineries in Oregon. Not only did the Ponzi family help create the Oregon wine industry more than 50 years ago, today Maria and Luisa Ponzi are continuing their legacy of quality. Known for world-class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, their Arneis shows a different side of the Ponzi portfolio. A unique northern Italian white grape, Arneis vines were planted at Ponzi in 1990. This deliciously succulent wine is citrusy but with layered complexity. It’s for drinking and thinking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"https://www.charleskrug.com/wines/reserves/family-reserve-generations-2015\">2015 Charles Krug Family Reserve ‘Generations’ Red Wine, Napa Valley, California\u003c/a> $70\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nTalk about a rich history…Charles Krug leads the way in Napa Valley. Founded in 1861, it remains one of the most esteemed producers in California. Under the ownership of the Peter Mondavi family since 1943, Charles Krug’s Generations honors the family’s heritage and lineage. This classic Bordeaux-style blend is primarily Cabernet Sauvignon and falls on the lush side of the scale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s an ideal candidate to put in your wine cellar, but if you can’t wait a few years, no worries. Served alongside prime rib, rack of lamb, or a pungent aged cheese, it’s ready to enjoy tonight (just make sure to give me a call if you’re opening the bottle).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"https://www.ste-michelle.com/shop/wines/2016-red-mountain-cabernet-sauvignon\">2016 Chateau Ste. Michelle ‘Red Mountain’ Cabernet Sauvignon, Columbia Valley, Washington\u003c/a> $50\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nWashington state icon, Chateau Ste. Michelle, crafts a wide selection of wines from dry and sweet Riesling to Chardonnay, Merlot and red blends. But one of their superstars is this Cabernet Sauvignon. The hot and arid Red Mountain wine-growing region produces grapes with intensity and structure. Those qualities drive the core of this red, but it’s wrapped in plushness from concentrated dark fruit flavors. Drink now or age and drink later…either way it will provide pure pleasure in a glass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"https://shop.eberlewinery.com/SHOP.AMS?LEVEL=BOT&PART=PRZIN17\">2017 Eberle Zinfandel, Paso Robles, California\u003c/a> $30\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nWhen it comes to Zinfandel, Paso is the place and Eberle knows best. As a pioneer in the area, Eberle has seen the trends come and go, but their focus has always been on showcasing the purity of fruit grown in Paso Robles. This is a no-holds-barred, spicy, full-bodied Zin made to pair alongside casual fare from tangy Sloppy Joe’s to spaghetti with red sauce to savory grilled steak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"http://thesplintergroupspirits.com/whipsaw\">Whip Saw Rye Whiskey, California\u003c/a> $48\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nRye is a hot category among whiskey lovers and Whip Saw delivers the heat. A blend of whiskeys is the base, but with a unique twist. What sets it apart is that the blend was finished in wine barrels that previously held the famed Willams Selyem Pinot Noir along with a variety of Napa Valley Cabernets. This gives the Rye-driven spirit an opulent flavor profile laden with exotic fruit and chocolatey notes. Smooth, sultry, spicy and sippable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_20405\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20405\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips.jpg\" alt=\"Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 16.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1279\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips-1020x679.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips-1200x799.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 16. \u003ccite>(Grace Cheung/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thirsty for more beverage advice?

It’s not called Champagne because it’s not from the eponymous region, but Crémant de Loire hails from the stunning Loire Valley of France. Made from Chenin Blanc grapes in a dry – or Brut – style, it’s an elegant sparkler. When it comes to value for the money, you can’t beat this bubbly beauty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Not only did the Ponzi family help create the Oregon wine industry more than 50 years ago, today Maria and Luisa Ponzi are continuing their legacy of quality. Known for world-class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, their Arneis shows a different side of the Ponzi portfolio. A unique northern Italian white grape, Arneis vines were planted at Ponzi in 1990. This deliciously succulent wine is citrusy but with layered complexity. It’s for drinking and thinking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"https://www.charleskrug.com/wines/reserves/family-reserve-generations-2015\">2015 Charles Krug Family Reserve ‘Generations’ Red Wine, Napa Valley, California\u003c/a> $70\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nTalk about a rich history…Charles Krug leads the way in Napa Valley. Founded in 1861, it remains one of the most esteemed producers in California. Under the ownership of the Peter Mondavi family since 1943, Charles Krug’s Generations honors the family’s heritage and lineage. This classic Bordeaux-style blend is primarily Cabernet Sauvignon and falls on the lush side of the scale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s an ideal candidate to put in your wine cellar, but if you can’t wait a few years, no worries. Served alongside prime rib, rack of lamb, or a pungent aged cheese, it’s ready to enjoy tonight (just make sure to give me a call if you’re opening the bottle).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"https://www.ste-michelle.com/shop/wines/2016-red-mountain-cabernet-sauvignon\">2016 Chateau Ste. Michelle ‘Red Mountain’ Cabernet Sauvignon, Columbia Valley, Washington\u003c/a> $50\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nWashington state icon, Chateau Ste. Michelle, crafts a wide selection of wines from dry and sweet Riesling to Chardonnay, Merlot and red blends. But one of their superstars is this Cabernet Sauvignon. The hot and arid Red Mountain wine-growing region produces grapes with intensity and structure. Those qualities drive the core of this red, but it’s wrapped in plushness from concentrated dark fruit flavors. Drink now or age and drink later…either way it will provide pure pleasure in a glass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"https://shop.eberlewinery.com/SHOP.AMS?LEVEL=BOT&PART=PRZIN17\">2017 Eberle Zinfandel, Paso Robles, California\u003c/a> $30\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nWhen it comes to Zinfandel, Paso is the place and Eberle knows best. As a pioneer in the area, Eberle has seen the trends come and go, but their focus has always been on showcasing the purity of fruit grown in Paso Robles. This is a no-holds-barred, spicy, full-bodied Zin made to pair alongside casual fare from tangy Sloppy Joe’s to spaghetti with red sauce to savory grilled steak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"http://thesplintergroupspirits.com/whipsaw\">Whip Saw Rye Whiskey, California\u003c/a> $48\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nRye is a hot category among whiskey lovers and Whip Saw delivers the heat. A blend of whiskeys is the base, but with a unique twist. What sets it apart is that the blend was finished in wine barrels that previously held the famed Willams Selyem Pinot Noir along with a variety of Napa Valley Cabernets. This gives the Rye-driven spirit an opulent flavor profile laden with exotic fruit and chocolatey notes. Smooth, sultry, spicy and sippable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_20405\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20405\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips.jpg\" alt=\"Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 16.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1279\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips-1020x679.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/10/check-please-bay-area-1416-wine-tips-1200x799.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 16. \u003ccite>(Grace Cheung/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thirsty for more beverage advice?

Ideal for cocktails or just for fireside sipping, Michter’s is a top-notch American whiskey producer to know.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_20363\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20363\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1414-wine-tips.jpg\" alt=\"Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 14.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1271\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1414-wine-tips.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1414-wine-tips-160x106.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1414-wine-tips-800x530.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1414-wine-tips-768x508.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1414-wine-tips-1020x675.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1414-wine-tips-1200x794.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 14. \u003ccite>(Grace Cheung/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thirsty for more beverage advice?

But, when I discovered the unique gin from Bently Heritage – a new, impressive distillery in Minden, Nevada – I wanted to sample the vodka. It’s well worth it.

This pretty-in-pink wine made from Barbera is a winner. Spicy, succulent and refreshing, it’s an enjoyable sip with packaging to match its sense of whimsy. The owner of the brand, Janu Goelz, has a fascinating past full of passions from fashion to film (the alluring label is, in fact, from fashion designer Malene Grotrian) and she has crafted a Rosé with a story to tell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"https://www.seasmoke.com/\">2016 Sea Smoke ‘Southing’ Pinot Noir, Santa Rita Hills, California\u003c/a> $100\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nPinot Noir inspires people because it’s such a difficult grape to make into great wine. When its planted in the right place and made with care and commitment, though, the resulting wine shines like no other. Such is the case with Sea Smoke. It’s a magical slice of vinous heaven perched on in the mist-laden coastal Santa Rita Hills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their bottling dubbed ‘Ten’ is arguably their most coveted Pinot, but I have long been a fan of the ‘Southing.’ It’s a Pinot that elicits emotion with red-berry finesse and savory undertones.

Or, age for up to a decade and let it gain even more complexity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"https://shop.schramsberg.com/SHOP.AMS?LEVEL=BOT&PART=M\">Schramsberg Mirabelle Brut sparkling wine, North Coast, California\u003c/a> $29\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nAs one of California – and the world’s – top sparkling producers, Schramsberg brings its depth of experience and benchmark of quality to Mirabelle. Known for their vintage bottlings of bubbly, this is the wine producer’s multi-vintage blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Always delivering elegance layered with complexity, Mirabelle is a sparkler ideal for weekend celebrations and Tuesday with takeout.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"https://bentlyheritage.com/spirits/source-one\">Bently Heritage Source One Single Estate Vodka\u003c/a> $40\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nAs someone who only drinks vodka sparingly, I rarely get excited about the category in general. But, when I discovered the unique gin from Bently Heritage – a new, impressive distillery in Minden, Nevada – I wanted to sample the vodka. It’s well worth it. Made with oats as the main grain, there is a textural component to this spirit that sets it apart from others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"http://alaracellars.orderport.net/product-details/0051/2017-Barbera-Rose\">2017 Alara Barbera Rosé, Central Coast, California\u003c/a> $25\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nAs a pink wine aficionado, I’m always searching for new bottles to buy. This pretty-in-pink wine made from Barbera is a winner. Spicy, succulent and refreshing, it’s an enjoyable sip with packaging to match its sense of whimsy. The owner of the brand, Janu Goelz, has a fascinating past full of passions from fashion to film (the alluring label is, in fact, from fashion designer Malene Grotrian) and she has crafted a Rosé with a story to tell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"https://www.seasmoke.com/\">2016 Sea Smoke ‘Southing’ Pinot Noir, Santa Rita Hills, California\u003c/a> $100\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nPinot Noir inspires people because it’s such a difficult grape to make into great wine. When its planted in the right place and made with care and commitment, though, the resulting wine shines like no other. Such is the case with Sea Smoke. It’s a magical slice of vinous heaven perched on in the mist-laden coastal Santa Rita Hills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their bottling dubbed ‘Ten’ is arguably their most coveted Pinot, but I have long been a fan of the ‘Southing.’ It’s a Pinot that elicits emotion with red-berry finesse and savory undertones. I feel like I’m draped in silk just sipping it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_20336\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20336\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1413-wine.jpeg\" alt=\"Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 13.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1235\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1413-wine.jpeg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1413-wine-160x103.jpeg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1413-wine-800x515.jpeg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1413-wine-768x494.jpeg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1413-wine-1020x656.jpeg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1413-wine-1200x772.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 13. \u003ccite>(Grace Cheung/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thirsty for more beverage advice?

Made by California’s Truett Hurst winery in conjunction with Weight Watchers, the lineup is a way to maximize enjoyment while minimizing calories (a glass is around 85 calories).

This bracing white is from the cool-climate coastal region of San Antonio Valley—a mere eight miles from the Pacific Ocean. Cool temperatures bring out the aromatic side of Pinot Gris and the wine sports floral and citrus on the nose with succulent, juicy flavors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overdelivering in quality, it’s a steal for the price. I recommend making it your house white for summer and fall sipping.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://shop.duttongoldfield.com/2016-McDougall-Vineyard-Pinot-Noir?pageID=61A9376D-F5EE-8CA7-9391-6F31F80B0120&sortBy=DisplayOrder&maxRows=12&\">2016 Dutton Goldfield ‘McDougall Vineyard’ Pinot Noir, Fort Ross-Seaview, California $68\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nBeing a Pinot Noir lover, I’m partial to the wines from not only this producer, but also the vineyard. Dutton Goldfield is a partnership between fifth-generation Sonoma grower, Steve Dutton, and noted winemaker, Dan Goldfield. Their wines are always stellar–thoughtful, authentic, and restrained. This particular bottling comes from a rugged coastal area along Sonoma County’s northern reaches from the famed McDougall Vineyard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The wine is intense and spicy with saturated red-berry fruit and a lingering finish. A beauty to pair alongside not only roasted turkey and mustard-laced pork loin, but also for aromatic, creamy cheeses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://domainerutz.com/shop?keywords=&olsPage=products%2F2016-notre-vue-estate-vineyard-chalk-hill-cabernet-sauvignon\">2016 Rütz ‘Notre Vue Estate Vineyard’ Cabernet Sauvignon, Chalk Hill, Sonoma County, California $50\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nVintner, Keith Rütz, may be California-based, but he is French-inspired. His love and family history center around France’s Burgundy and Languedoc regions with wines of finesse being his focus. This Domaine Rütz Cabernet hails from steep hillside vineyards on the Notre Vu estate of Chalk Hill in Sonoma.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Due to the slightly cooler climate of the Chalk Hill appellation (though Cabernet Sauvignon does love heat), the wine showcases taut structure wrapped with laser-like dark fruit notes and loads of Cab complexity. A wine to drink now with grilled sirloin or cellar for a few years to enjoy as it gracefully ages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_20304\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20304\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine.jpg\" alt=\"Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 11.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1285\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine-800x535.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine-768x514.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine-1020x683.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine-1200x803.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 11. \u003ccite>(Grace Cheung)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thirsty for more beverage advice?

This bracing white is from the cool-climate coastal region of San Antonio Valley—a mere eight miles from the Pacific Ocean. Cool temperatures bring out the aromatic side of Pinot Gris and the wine sports floral and citrus on the nose with succulent, juicy flavors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overdelivering in quality, it’s a steal for the price. I recommend making it your house white for summer and fall sipping.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://shop.duttongoldfield.com/2016-McDougall-Vineyard-Pinot-Noir?pageID=61A9376D-F5EE-8CA7-9391-6F31F80B0120&sortBy=DisplayOrder&maxRows=12&\">2016 Dutton Goldfield ‘McDougall Vineyard’ Pinot Noir, Fort Ross-Seaview, California $68\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nBeing a Pinot Noir lover, I’m partial to the wines from not only this producer, but also the vineyard. Dutton Goldfield is a partnership between fifth-generation Sonoma grower, Steve Dutton, and noted winemaker, Dan Goldfield. Their wines are always stellar–thoughtful, authentic, and restrained. This particular bottling comes from a rugged coastal area along Sonoma County’s northern reaches from the famed McDougall Vineyard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The wine is intense and spicy with saturated red-berry fruit and a lingering finish. A beauty to pair alongside not only roasted turkey and mustard-laced pork loin, but also for aromatic, creamy cheeses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://domainerutz.com/shop?keywords=&olsPage=products%2F2016-notre-vue-estate-vineyard-chalk-hill-cabernet-sauvignon\">2016 Rütz ‘Notre Vue Estate Vineyard’ Cabernet Sauvignon, Chalk Hill, Sonoma County, California $50\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nVintner, Keith Rütz, may be California-based, but he is French-inspired. His love and family history center around France’s Burgundy and Languedoc regions with wines of finesse being his focus. This Domaine Rütz Cabernet hails from steep hillside vineyards on the Notre Vu estate of Chalk Hill in Sonoma.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Due to the slightly cooler climate of the Chalk Hill appellation (though Cabernet Sauvignon does love heat), the wine showcases taut structure wrapped with laser-like dark fruit notes and loads of Cab complexity. A wine to drink now with grilled sirloin or cellar for a few years to enjoy as it gracefully ages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_20304\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20304\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine.jpg\" alt=\"Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 11.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1285\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine-800x535.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine-768x514.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine-1020x683.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/09/1411-wine-1200x803.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 11. \u003ccite>(Grace Cheung)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thirsty for more beverage advice?

But, the island of Sicily is a spot to seek out for Italian versions called Rosato. This refreshing, sun-splashed wine hails from the volcanic soils of Mount Etna on Sicily’s eastern shore.

Why? Made from native Sicilian red grapes Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Cappuccino and Carricante, it’s a red that is transparent. By that I mean it’s a wine that speaks loudly of its high altitude, volcanic origins. With earthy aromas, a streak of minerality and intensity of fruit flavors, the Tenuta di Fessina Erse (which refers to the blue sky of Etna), offers great value for such a unique wine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/LVXUCVON1KCxQQvYSJ_sCt?domain=qupe.com\">\u003cstrong>2016 Qupé Syrah, Central Coast, California $20\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nNamed by founder, Bob Lindquist, as an ode to the native Chumash word for the California poppy flower, Qupé is a classic. From the cool climate Central Coast, their Syrah is made just the way I like it. It’s not a huge fruit bomb that makes you full after one glass. No, this Syrah falls on the elegant side of the scale with peppery freshness and succulent, lip-smacking fruit notes. Blending in a mélange of Grenache, Mourvedre and Tempranillo, this crowd-pleasing, affordable red is one to stock up on to drink all year long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_20244\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20244\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/06/1410-wine-e1560208641569.jpg\" alt=\"Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 9.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 10. \u003ccite>(Grace Cheung)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thirsty for more beverage advice?

Made from an indigenous red grape named Nerello Mascalese, it’s delicate and juicy capturing the feel of an endless summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/RbwpCR6LWDuvZZVxhPTILE?domain=tenutadifessina.com\">2016 Erse Etna Rosso DOC, Sicily, Italy $20 \u003c/a> \u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nEtna Rosso is the darling of the wine cognoscenti. Why? Made from native Sicilian red grapes Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Cappuccino and Carricante, it’s a red that is transparent. By that I mean it’s a wine that speaks loudly of its high altitude, volcanic origins. With earthy aromas, a streak of minerality and intensity of fruit flavors, the Tenuta di Fessina Erse (which refers to the blue sky of Etna), offers great value for such a unique wine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/LVXUCVON1KCxQQvYSJ_sCt?domain=qupe.com\">\u003cstrong>2016 Qupé Syrah, Central Coast, California $20\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nNamed by founder, Bob Lindquist, as an ode to the native Chumash word for the California poppy flower, Qupé is a classic. From the cool climate Central Coast, their Syrah is made just the way I like it. It’s not a huge fruit bomb that makes you full after one glass. No, this Syrah falls on the elegant side of the scale with peppery freshness and succulent, lip-smacking fruit notes. Blending in a mélange of Grenache, Mourvedre and Tempranillo, this crowd-pleasing, affordable red is one to stock up on to drink all year long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_20244\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20244\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2019/06/1410-wine-e1560208641569.jpg\" alt=\"Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 9.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 14 episode 10. \u003ccite>(Grace Cheung)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thirsty for more beverage advice?
