Bay Area\u003c/strong>\u003c/em>. Each week, I will be sharing my tasting notes about the wine the guests and I drank on set during the taping of the show. I will also share some \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/category/wine-tips/\">wine tips\u003c/a> with each episode. This week I discuss: \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/2015/06/03/leslie-sbroccos-check-please-bay-area-season-10-wine-tips/\">the trend of wines on tap.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.jordanwinery.com/wines/alexander-valley-cabernet-sauvignon/vintages/2011\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2011 Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon, Alexander Valley, California\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($53)\u003cbr>\nWhat’s so compelling about Jordan is their never-ending focus on quality paired with innovation. Founded in 1976 the classic producer has been owned by one family – the Jordan’s – with one winemaker – Rob Davis – for nearly 40 years. Davis crafts the wines with a steady hand in an elegant style. I call their approach California classic with a French flair. Though the 2011 vintage was a challenging one, this complex blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with a dash of Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Malbec, showcases red fruit freshness followed by silky tannins. It’s a wine to uncork now with a few hours of decanting or age for up to a decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.jordanwinery.com/wines/russian-river-chardonnay/vintages/2013\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2013 Jordan Chardonnay, Russian River Valley, Sonoma County, California\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($30)\u003cbr>\nI adore Chardonnay. Nothing compares with well-made, expressive versions. Usually I crave white Burgundy from France (Puligny-Montrachet makes me swoon), but Jordan’s Chardonnay ranks among my domestic favorites. The purity of Russian River fruit jumps from the glass along with Meyer lemony succulence and minerally undertones. Heralded as a vintage to remember, the 2013 Jordan Chardonnay is a world-class white that belongs on every wine lover’s table.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://giesen.co.nz/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2014 Giesen Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, New Zealand\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($15)\u003cbr>\nThe trio of brothers, Theo, Alex and Marcel Giesen, left their German homeland to make wine in New Zealand in 1981. They have built a family of world-class wines based upon the idea that wine should be delicious and enjoyable to drink. This Sauvignon Blanc brings their philosophy to life. With sunshine-bright citrus flavors and a snap of fresh herbal aromas, it’s a wine to partner with many dishes on the table from goat cheese salad to pasta primavera.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kitawines.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2013 Kitá Grenache Blanc “Camp 4 Vineyard,” Santa Ynez Valley, California\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($22)\u003cbr>\nLooking for something impressive and unique? I was blown away when I tasted this wine. It’s a beautiful expression of Grenache Blanc, one of my favorite white grapes. The impeccably balanced combination of weightiness on the palate with vibrant fruit flavors and floral aromas is like a designer dress in a bottle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The backstory of this producer – founded in 2010 – is fascinating, too. Tara Gomez is a native American winemaker with passion. Kitá means \u003cem>Our Valley Oak\u003c/em> in her native Chumash language and her tribe owns the vineyard. As the winery says, “Like the valley oak, our wine highlights the gifts from Mother Earth and embodies the spirit of the Santa Ynez Valley. We focus on respecting the balance of soil, climate, location and taste.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.pepperbridge.com/2012-seven-hills-vineyard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2012 Pepper Bridge “Seven Hills Vineyard,” Walla Walla Valley, Washington\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($55)\u003cbr>\nPepper Bridge is a class act. It’s a marriage of three families all working together to create wine that blends Old World sensibility with New World power. This Bordeaux-styled cuvee of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, is rich and structured with enough tannins to age gracefully for years to come. Can’t wait that long? No worries. The supple, fleshy texture and dark fruit notes make this an easy wine to uncork and enjoy tonight, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.chateausaintmaur.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2014 Chateau Saint-Maur “Cuvée L’Excellence” Cotes de Provence, France\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($30)\u003cbr>\nIf you think rosé is simply inexpensive pink wine, think again. This producer crafts iconic rosé in the famed Cotes de Provence area of southern France (imagine holding a glass in St. Tropez and watching the celebrity world go by and you get the picture). A blend of Grenache, Cinsault, Mourvèdre and an obscure grape named Rolle, this beautifully packaged dry pink is delicate but gorgeously complex at the same time. It’s an ideal gift or simply a present to yourself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" link=\"none\" ids=\"16847,16854,16853\"]\u003c/p>\n\n",

This week I discuss: \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/2015/06/03/leslie-sbroccos-check-please-bay-area-season-10-wine-tips/\">the trend of wines on tap.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.jordanwinery.com/wines/alexander-valley-cabernet-sauvignon/vintages/2011\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2011 Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon, Alexander Valley, California\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($53)\u003cbr>\nWhat’s so compelling about Jordan is their never-ending focus on quality paired with innovation. Founded in 1976 the classic producer has been owned by one family – the Jordan’s – with one winemaker – Rob Davis – for nearly 40 years. Davis crafts the wines with a steady hand in an elegant style. I call their approach California classic with a French flair. Though the 2011 vintage was a challenging one, this complex blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with a dash of Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Malbec, showcases red fruit freshness followed by silky tannins. It’s a wine to uncork now with a few hours of decanting or age for up to a decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Nothing compares with well-made, expressive versions. Usually I crave white Burgundy from France (Puligny-Montrachet makes me swoon), but Jordan’s Chardonnay ranks among my domestic favorites. The purity of Russian River fruit jumps from the glass along with Meyer lemony succulence and minerally undertones. Heralded as a vintage to remember, the 2013 Jordan Chardonnay is a world-class white that belongs on every wine lover’s table.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://giesen.co.nz/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2014 Giesen Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, New Zealand\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($15)\u003cbr>\nThe trio of brothers, Theo, Alex and Marcel Giesen, left their German homeland to make wine in New Zealand in 1981. They have built a family of world-class wines based upon the idea that wine should be delicious and enjoyable to drink. This Sauvignon Blanc brings their philosophy to life. With sunshine-bright citrus flavors and a snap of fresh herbal aromas, it’s a wine to partner with many dishes on the table from goat cheese salad to pasta primavera.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kitawines.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2013 Kitá Grenache Blanc “Camp 4 Vineyard,” Santa Ynez Valley, California\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($22)\u003cbr>\nLooking for something impressive and unique? I was blown away when I tasted this wine. It’s a beautiful expression of Grenache Blanc, one of my favorite white grapes. The impeccably balanced combination of weightiness on the palate with vibrant fruit flavors and floral aromas is like a designer dress in a bottle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The backstory of this producer – founded in 2010 – is fascinating, too. Tara Gomez is a native American winemaker with passion. Kitá means \u003cem>Our Valley Oak\u003c/em> in her native Chumash language and her tribe owns the vineyard. As the winery says, “Like the valley oak, our wine highlights the gifts from Mother Earth and embodies the spirit of the Santa Ynez Valley. We focus on respecting the balance of soil, climate, location and taste.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.pepperbridge.com/2012-seven-hills-vineyard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2012 Pepper Bridge “Seven Hills Vineyard,” Walla Walla Valley, Washington\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($55)\u003cbr>\nPepper Bridge is a class act. It’s a marriage of three families all working together to create wine that blends Old World sensibility with New World power. This Bordeaux-styled cuvee of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, is rich and structured with enough tannins to age gracefully for years to come. Can’t wait that long? No worries. The supple, fleshy texture and dark fruit notes make this an easy wine to uncork and enjoy tonight, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.chateausaintmaur.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2014 Chateau Saint-Maur “Cuvée L’Excellence” Cotes de Provence, France\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($30)\u003cbr>\nIf you think rosé is simply inexpensive pink wine, think again. This producer crafts iconic rosé in the famed Cotes de Provence area of southern France (imagine holding a glass in St. Tropez and watching the celebrity world go by and you get the picture). A blend of Grenache, Cinsault, Mourvèdre and an obscure grape named Rolle, this beautifully packaged dry pink is delicate but gorgeously complex at the same time. It’s an ideal gift or simply a present to yourself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Headed by talented winemaker, Elena Adell, Campo Viejo has the rare ability to produce well-priced, world-class wines with character. This sparkler is one of my perennial favorites. Crafted in the traditional method with native grape varieties including traditional Xarello, Parellada, and Macabeo, it’s aged in bottle for 18 months giving it reserva Cava status. Crisp and dry, the vibrant flavors followed by a creamy texture make it feel indulgent to sip, but it impresses for less.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/amityvineyards\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cstrong>2013 Amity Vineyards Pinot Blanc, Willamette Valley, Oregon\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($18)\u003cbr>\nPinot Blanc (pinot white) is the least known of the trio of grapes including partners Pinot Gris (pinot grey) and Pinot Noir (pinot black).

That’s what sipping this wine makes you do – love life. Crafted by the talented hands of Jean-Francois Pellet, who is also the winemaker at superstar winery Pepper Bridge, this Cabernet is just plain sexy. Lush and full-bodied with a streak of vibrant acidity, it’s a true expression of Washington’s Walla Walla area where warm days and cold nights abound. If you’re a California Cab lover, trade up to this well-priced, pure-pleasure red.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.vineconnections.com/viewproduct.php?c=5&pid=383\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cstrong>2012 Garcia + Schwaderer Sauvignon Blanc, Casablanca Valley, Chile\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($22)\u003cbr>\nA hidden treasure wine — this is a Sauvignon with structure and complexity. Hailing from the cool climes of Chile’s coastal Casablanca Valley, it’s a white made for food. Mineral notes express themselves as grapefruit skin aromas and zesty citrus flavors. But, add layers of ripe fruit character and a whisper of honeyed richness and you have a wine with real depth. Swirl the glass and don’t serve it too cold to get the full impact of its unique qualities. Serve it with a warm goat cheese salad and prepare for wine + food perfection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.lucawines.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cstrong>2012 Luca Pinot Noir “G Lot” Tupungato, Argentina\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($32)\u003cbr>\nNamed for owner, Laura Catena’s son, this brand is consistently a top pick of mine from Argentina. Focused on high-elevation, low-yielding vineyards, world-class quality is the hallmark of Luca. Most drinkers don’t think of Pinot Noir from Argentina, but this is one to seek out. It marries the dark berry intensity of Pinot with the grape’s earthy, wild side. If you sip Pinots from Burgundy, you’ll feel at home with a glass. If you indulge in California Pinots, you’ll drink at least two glasses (maybe three). It’s a stylish wine that is delicious by itself or paired with dishes from grilled salmon to beef bourguignon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.tolosawinery.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cstrong>2014 Tolosa Rosé of Pinot Noir, Edna Valley, California\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($24)\u003cbr>\nThis succulent rosé is all about fruit. From strawberry to peach, melon to pear, it’s a fruit bowl of flavor in a glass. Don’t get me wrong – it’s a dry wine but explodes with freshness. Whether you drink dry or sweet, you’ll appreciate this classy pink. Try sipping alongside salads, ribs and spicy dishes.

That’s what sipping this wine makes you do – love life. Crafted by the talented hands of Jean-Francois Pellet, who is also the winemaker at superstar winery Pepper Bridge, this Cabernet is just plain sexy. Lush and full-bodied with a streak of vibrant acidity, it’s a true expression of Washington’s Walla Walla area where warm days and cold nights abound. If you’re a California Cab lover, trade up to this well-priced, pure-pleasure red.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Hailing from the cool climes of Chile’s coastal Casablanca Valley, it’s a white made for food. Mineral notes express themselves as grapefruit skin aromas and zesty citrus flavors. But, add layers of ripe fruit character and a whisper of honeyed richness and you have a wine with real depth. Swirl the glass and don’t serve it too cold to get the full impact of its unique qualities. Serve it with a warm goat cheese salad and prepare for wine + food perfection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.lucawines.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cstrong>2012 Luca Pinot Noir “G Lot” Tupungato, Argentina\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($32)\u003cbr>\nNamed for owner, Laura Catena’s son, this brand is consistently a top pick of mine from Argentina. Focused on high-elevation, low-yielding vineyards, world-class quality is the hallmark of Luca. Most drinkers don’t think of Pinot Noir from Argentina, but this is one to seek out. It marries the dark berry intensity of Pinot with the grape’s earthy, wild side. If you sip Pinots from Burgundy, you’ll feel at home with a glass. If you indulge in California Pinots, you’ll drink at least two glasses (maybe three). It’s a stylish wine that is delicious by itself or paired with dishes from grilled salmon to beef bourguignon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.tolosawinery.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cstrong>2014 Tolosa Rosé of Pinot Noir, Edna Valley, California\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($24)\u003cbr>\nThis succulent rosé is all about fruit. From strawberry to peach, melon to pear, it’s a fruit bowl of flavor in a glass. Don’t get me wrong – it’s a dry wine but explodes with freshness. Whether you drink dry or sweet, you’ll appreciate this classy pink. Try sipping alongside salads, ribs and spicy dishes. Or, just enjoy a glass after work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_16784\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/cp106-wine-on-set1920.jpg\" alt=\"Wines that guests drank on the set of the sixth episode of season 10.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16784\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/cp106-wine-on-set1920.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/cp106-wine-on-set1920-400x267.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/cp106-wine-on-set1920-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/cp106-wine-on-set1920-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/cp106-wine-on-set1920-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/cp106-wine-on-set1920-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wines that guests drank on the set of the sixth episode of season 10. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

It’s the same when you sip this pretty-in-pink rosé. Dry in style with succulent red berry flavors, it’s a quaffer with a kick of complexity that’s ideal for all seasons.

Winemaker Anthony Yount takes great care to focus on the property’s unique vineyards in the cooler, high elevation Will Creek District AVA in Paso Robles. This world-class blend is a combination of Rhone varieties including Grenache, Mourvedre, Syrah, Cinsualt. It’s supple, smooth and ready to drink now, yet has all the elements to age. As the winery says, “Do not be fooled by this wine’s blue collar namesake, as it is pure sophistication.” Couldn’t have said it better myself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.emiliomoro.com/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2012 Emilio Moro, Ribera Del Duero, Spain\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($20)\u003cbr>\nFor the price, the Emilio Moro ranks among the most delicious Spanish reds on the market. Producing classics for more than 70 years, the family-owned winery is located in the famed region of Ribera del Duero. Here Tinta Fino (elsewhere called Tempranillo) shines, creating lush yet vibrant wine.

This week I discuss: \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/2015/06/03/leslie-sbroccos-check-please-bay-area-season-10-wine-tips/\">What is sweetness in wine?\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.boschendalwines.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2015 Boschendal “The Rose Garden” Rosé, Coastal Region, South Africa\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($11)\u003cbr>\nWhen you walk into a rose garden you are transported to a place of happiness. It’s the same when you sip this pretty-in-pink rosé. Dry in style with succulent red berry flavors, it’s a quaffer with a kick of complexity that’s ideal for all seasons.

Winemaker Anthony Yount takes great care to focus on the property’s unique vineyards in the cooler, high elevation Will Creek District AVA in Paso Robles. This world-class blend is a combination of Rhone varieties including Grenache, Mourvedre, Syrah, Cinsualt. It’s supple, smooth and ready to drink now, yet has all the elements to age. As the winery says, “Do not be fooled by this wine’s blue collar namesake, as it is pure sophistication.” Couldn’t have said it better myself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.emiliomoro.com/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2012 Emilio Moro, Ribera Del Duero, Spain\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($20)\u003cbr>\nFor the price, the Emilio Moro ranks among the most delicious Spanish reds on the market. Producing classics for more than 70 years, the family-owned winery is located in the famed region of Ribera del Duero. Here Tinta Fino (elsewhere called Tempranillo) shines, creating lush yet vibrant wine. I recommend it highly and encourage you to stock up by the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.thewinebowgroup.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cstrong>2013 Lima “Loureiro” Vinho Verde, Portugal\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> ($10)\u003cbr>\nThe area of Vinho Verde in northern Portugal along the border of Spain is known for its crisp white wines. The signature grape is Alvarinho but this citrus-scented, zesty version is made with another grape named Loureiro. If you like fruity Sauvignon Blanc, you’ll find this a great alternative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_16744\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16744\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/wine-1920.jpg\" alt=\"Wines that guests drank on the set of the fifth episode of season 10.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/wine-1920.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/wine-1920-400x267.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/wine-1920-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/wine-1920-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/wine-1920-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/09/wine-1920-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wines that guests drank on the set of the fifth episode of season 10. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

I will also share some wine (beer and spirits) tips with each episode. This week I discuss: \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/category/wine-tips/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">What role does acidity play in the taste of wine?\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.frogsleap.com/our-wines.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2013 Frog’s Leap Chardonnay, Napa Valley, California \u003c/a> ($32)\u003cbr>\nOne of the classic wineries of modern-day Napa Valley is Frog’s Leap. Founded on a whim in the mid-1970s by John Williams, the founder — like the wines — have always maintained a sense of whimsy and wonder. This is a fun place to visit and the wines are a sheer joy to sip. Take the Chardonnay, for example. Lushly-styled and layered with complex aromas of ripe fruit and whiff of minerality, there’s a refreshing vibrancy that makes you want to drink another glass (or three). It’s a world-class Chardonnay that doesn’t take itself too seriously. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.savedwines.com/age.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2013 Saved “Money Maker” Rosé, Napa Valley, California\u003c/a> ($15)\u003cbr>\nA melange of grapes from Grenache to Pinot Noir and Malbec are blended to create the powerfully dry pink dubbed SAVED. As the owner, artist Scott Campbell says, “Rosé is a pink wine for tough guys and gals.” Noted winemaker Clay Brock only crafted a few hundred cases of this appealing pink. Pick it up and save your day…and night. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://esporao.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2012 Assobio, Douro, Portugal\u003c/a> ($13)\u003cbr>\nMost people think that wines from Portugal only include sweet, fortified Port. Not true at all. One of the hottest trends in the historic wine-making country is the rise of dry, hearty reds. They offer some of the best values on the wine market today. This sumptuous, spicy blend from famous producer, Esporao, is made with the same native grapes that go into Port (Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca and Touriga Nacional) but is dry and delicious.

Founded on a whim in the mid-1970s by John Williams, the founder — like the wines — have always maintained a sense of whimsy and wonder. This is a fun place to visit and the wines are a sheer joy to sip. Take the Chardonnay, for example. Lushly-styled and layered with complex aromas of ripe fruit and whiff of minerality, there’s a refreshing vibrancy that makes you want to drink another glass (or three). It’s a world-class Chardonnay that doesn’t take itself too seriously. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.savedwines.com/age.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2013 Saved “Money Maker” Rosé, Napa Valley, California\u003c/a> ($15)\u003cbr>\nA melange of grapes from Grenache to Pinot Noir and Malbec are blended to create the powerfully dry pink dubbed SAVED. As the owner, artist Scott Campbell says, “Rosé is a pink wine for tough guys and gals.” Noted winemaker Clay Brock only crafted a few hundred cases of this appealing pink. Pick it up and save your day…and night. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://esporao.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2012 Assobio, Douro, Portugal\u003c/a> ($13)\u003cbr>\nMost people think that wines from Portugal only include sweet, fortified Port. Not true at all. One of the hottest trends in the historic wine-making country is the rise of dry, hearty reds. They offer some of the best values on the wine market today. This sumptuous, spicy blend from famous producer, Esporao, is made with the same native grapes that go into Port (Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca and Touriga Nacional) but is dry and delicious. With a price tag of under $15, it’s a wine to purchase by the case and pour all year long. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/04/wine19201.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/04/wine19201.jpg\" alt=\"Check, Please!

It’s a beauty to savor with food or on its own. You’ll be considered in-the-know by saying “TrentoDOC” (pronounced dock) like the northern Italians do. A special place tucked into the foothills of the Dolomite Mountains outside of the city of Trento, the wines are made in the traditional method and with the same grapes that grow in Champagne, France including Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Around 1900, Giulio Ferrari was responsible for bringing those grapes to the Italian region after working in Champagne. From there, one of Italy’s top bubblies was born. The Perlé is made with pure Chardonnay and serves up a sumptuous yet crisp sparkler layered with rich fruit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://jlohr.com/wines/gesture/rose-2013\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2013 J. Lohr “Gesture” Grenache Rosé, Paso Robles, California\u003c/a> ($18)\u003cbr>\nJ. Lohr is a winery that has helped put Monterey County on the map. With vineyards in Paso Robles and Napa, as well as Monterey, it’s a California winery with stature and status. Originally conceived to be part of their wine club, the Gesture line focuses on Rhone-style wines such as this appealing pink. Made with Grenache grapes, it’s dry but with succulent red berry fruit flavors and a kick of spice. Don’t worry about pairing it with food (it goes with just about everything), just serve it with special moments in your life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.donapaula.com/en/?p=2409\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2012 Doña Paula “Black Edition” red blend, Mendoza, Argentina\u003c/a> ($18)\u003cbr>\nTake a virtual trip to South America for less than $20 with this stupendous buy. Like tango dancers that pair tension with drama, the Black Edition is a red for lovers of sultry blends. Made with a marriage of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon & Petite Verdot, it has enough structure to age up to five years, but is appealingly smooth and ready to drink now. It partners well with hearty dishes like grilled steak or Portobello mushrooms. Stock up and toast me when you open a bottle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2880\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11821\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/04/wine1920.jpg\" alt=\"Check, Please!

It’s a beauty to savor with food or on its own. You’ll be considered in-the-know by saying “TrentoDOC” (pronounced dock) like the northern Italians do. A special place tucked into the foothills of the Dolomite Mountains outside of the city of Trento, the wines are made in the traditional method and with the same grapes that grow in Champagne, France including Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Around 1900, Giulio Ferrari was responsible for bringing those grapes to the Italian region after working in Champagne. From there, one of Italy’s top bubblies was born. The Perlé is made with pure Chardonnay and serves up a sumptuous yet crisp sparkler layered with rich fruit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://jlohr.com/wines/gesture/rose-2013\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2013 J. Lohr “Gesture” Grenache Rosé, Paso Robles, California\u003c/a> ($18)\u003cbr>\nJ. Lohr is a winery that has helped put Monterey County on the map. With vineyards in Paso Robles and Napa, as well as Monterey, it’s a California winery with stature and status. Originally conceived to be part of their wine club, the Gesture line focuses on Rhone-style wines such as this appealing pink. Made with Grenache grapes, it’s dry but with succulent red berry fruit flavors and a kick of spice. Don’t worry about pairing it with food (it goes with just about everything), just serve it with special moments in your life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.donapaula.com/en/?p=2409\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2012 Doña Paula “Black Edition” red blend, Mendoza, Argentina\u003c/a> ($18)\u003cbr>\nTake a virtual trip to South America for less than $20 with this stupendous buy. Like tango dancers that pair tension with drama, the Black Edition is a red for lovers of sultry blends. Made with a marriage of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon & Petite Verdot, it has enough structure to age up to five years, but is appealingly smooth and ready to drink now. It partners well with hearty dishes like grilled steak or Portobello mushrooms. Stock up and toast me when you open a bottle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2880\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11821\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/04/wine1920.jpg\" alt=\"Check, Please!

I will also share some wine (beer and spirits) tips with each episode. This week I discuss the language of wine – specifically, what is “oakiness”?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.vonschubert.com/en/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2013 Maximin Grünhauser Herrenberg “Kabinett” Riesling, Mosel, Germany\u003c/a> ($30)\u003cbr>\nOne of my favorite wine types is Riesling because it’s so flexible, pairing with a variety of dishes. Sip as a light-hearted aperitif, match with a hearty brunch, drink with spicy take-out dinner, or just take a glass with you to enjoy with a bubble bath. Dr. Carl von Schubert crafts this classic at the historic winery in Germany’s Mosel region. The area’s steep hillsides and slate-laden soils create wines with aromatic, floral notes and a core of racy minerality. A delicious, delicately sweet wine that has a taste profile to please.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ousterhoutwine.com/collections/all\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2012 Ousterhout Rosé “Wood’s Vineyard,” Russian River Valley, California\u003c/a> ($25)\u003cbr>\nFamily-owned Ousterhout, is a winery quietly making a name for itself. Being a pink wine lover, I’m always on the look out for rosé with character and this one is packed with layers of flavor, elegance and complexity. A whisper of floral aromas is wrapped with strawberry and citrus scents, which is followed with succulent fruit flavors. With only 225 cases made of this wine, it’s a treat to sip. Don’t miss the other pinks in the trio of Ousterhoust rosés. A winning trifecta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.rodneystrong.com/wine-shop/current-releases/symmetry#\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2012 Rodney Strong “Symmetry” Meritage Red Wine, Alexander Valley, Sonoma County, California\u003c/a> ($55)\u003cbr>\nIf wine could win an Oscar, this would take home a statue. The name aptly describes the balance of the wine with the five Bordeaux varieties fitting together seamlessly to achieve wine greatness. Cabernet Sauvignon is the star with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot playing supporting, but important roles. Grapes are grown on rolling hillsides in Sonoma County’s Alexander Valley. I have sampled young versions of this structured, intense wine and those aged for up to a decade. If you can hold on to the wine for a few years you will be rewarded with a velvety texture that deserves the accolades it’s received as one of California’s icon red blends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11777\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/04/1002-wine1920.jpg\" alt=\"Check, Please!

Sip as a light-hearted aperitif, match with a hearty brunch, drink with spicy take-out dinner, or just take a glass with you to enjoy with a bubble bath. Dr. Carl von Schubert crafts this classic at the historic winery in Germany’s Mosel region. The area’s steep hillsides and slate-laden soils create wines with aromatic, floral notes and a core of racy minerality. A delicious, delicately sweet wine that has a taste profile to please.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ousterhoutwine.com/collections/all\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2012 Ousterhout Rosé “Wood’s Vineyard,” Russian River Valley, California\u003c/a> ($25)\u003cbr>\nFamily-owned Ousterhout, is a winery quietly making a name for itself. Being a pink wine lover, I’m always on the look out for rosé with character and this one is packed with layers of flavor, elegance and complexity. A whisper of floral aromas is wrapped with strawberry and citrus scents, which is followed with succulent fruit flavors. With only 225 cases made of this wine, it’s a treat to sip. Don’t miss the other pinks in the trio of Ousterhoust rosés. A winning trifecta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.rodneystrong.com/wine-shop/current-releases/symmetry#\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2012 Rodney Strong “Symmetry” Meritage Red Wine, Alexander Valley, Sonoma County, California\u003c/a> ($55)\u003cbr>\nIf wine could win an Oscar, this would take home a statue. The name aptly describes the balance of the wine with the five Bordeaux varieties fitting together seamlessly to achieve wine greatness. Cabernet Sauvignon is the star with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot playing supporting, but important roles. Grapes are grown on rolling hillsides in Sonoma County’s Alexander Valley. I have sampled young versions of this structured, intense wine and those aged for up to a decade. If you can hold on to the wine for a few years you will be rewarded with a velvety texture that deserves the accolades it’s received as one of California’s icon red blends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11777\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/04/1002-wine1920.jpg\" alt=\"Check, Please!

Its deep salmon hue is reminiscent of great rosés of southern France. Admiring the color, however, is only the beginning. Mineral aromas and underlying complexity make it a serious drink, but the mouthwatering, succulent flavors make it seriously fun to sip. Serve as an aperitif on Friday, alongside Sunday brunch, or simply with Tuesday take-out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.banfiwines.com/wine/banfi-tuscany-chianti-classico-docg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2012 Banfi Chianti Classico, Italy\u003c/a> ($15)\u003cbr>\nWant a wine to enjoy with a variety of dishes from roast chicken to pizza, or grilled salmon or barbeque ribs? Then reach for this palate-refreshing red. Chianti Classico is a zone in the Chianti region of Tuscany and rarely can you find such an affordable version that still showcases the classic characteristics of Sangiovese. This red grape is married with Cabernet Sauvignon to produce a medium-bodied wine with vibrant acidity, juicy fruit notes and a swash of tannins, which offsets the richness of many foods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.grothwines.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2013 Groth Sauvignon Blanc, Napa Valley, California\u003c/a> ($20)\u003cbr>\nA world-class Sauvignon Blanc that balances the citrusy crispness of the variety with the lush fruit notes that come from basking in the Napa sunshine. Groth — founded by Dennis and Judy Groth in 1982 — is one of Napa’s famed producers. Known for structured, age-worthy Cabernet, their Sauvignon Blanc is a wine to discover…and then drink regularly.

Its deep salmon hue is reminiscent of great rosés of southern France. Admiring the color, however, is only the beginning. Mineral aromas and underlying complexity make it a serious drink, but the mouthwatering, succulent flavors make it seriously fun to sip. Serve as an aperitif on Friday, alongside Sunday brunch, or simply with Tuesday take-out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.banfiwines.com/wine/banfi-tuscany-chianti-classico-docg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2012 Banfi Chianti Classico, Italy\u003c/a> ($15)\u003cbr>\nWant a wine to enjoy with a variety of dishes from roast chicken to pizza, or grilled salmon or barbeque ribs? Then reach for this palate-refreshing red. Chianti Classico is a zone in the Chianti region of Tuscany and rarely can you find such an affordable version that still showcases the classic characteristics of Sangiovese. This red grape is married with Cabernet Sauvignon to produce a medium-bodied wine with vibrant acidity, juicy fruit notes and a swash of tannins, which offsets the richness of many foods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.grothwines.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2013 Groth Sauvignon Blanc, Napa Valley, California\u003c/a> ($20)\u003cbr>\nA world-class Sauvignon Blanc that balances the citrusy crispness of the variety with the lush fruit notes that come from basking in the Napa sunshine. Groth — founded by Dennis and Judy Groth in 1982 — is one of Napa’s famed producers. Known for structured, age-worthy Cabernet, their Sauvignon Blanc is a wine to discover…and then drink regularly. This is one of my favorite California whites.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11714\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2015/04/1002-wines-1920.jpg\" alt=\"Check, Please!
