Land of Saints wine company is a new project from Angela Osborne (A Tribute To Grace) and her husband Jason. Using their established relationships, they are making some incredible value wines sourced from organically grown varietals. This Pinot is an amazing value for the money.

Gooseberry and lemon grass on the nose, which carry through to the palate along with pear, kiwi and zesty lime flavors that accent the wine through a crisp finish. With racy citrus notes, this wine will enliven dishes that call for a splash of fresh citrus, such as seafood, ocean fish or poultry.

is namesake Grüner Veltliner is classical in many ways. The grapes are harvested and sorted by hand before being left to spontaneously ferment with native yeasts and age for seven months. Nice mouthfeel, subtle citrus and mineral notes with a touch of white radish make this a perfect pairing with salads or sashimi.

A tidal wave of oak-derived aromas, mostly maple and milk chocolate, engulfs the nose of this Monastrell. On the palate, it's creamy yet wiry, its oaky mint and vanilla flavors blending with acidic tastes of currant and red plum before settling into an oaky finish.

Bright yellow with silver reflections. Pronounced honeyed notes over attractive aromas of ripe stonefruit, subtle spices and mineral character. Nuances of juicy yellow fruit with vibrant acidity; highly elegant and balanced with a touch of salt, leading to a lingering mandarine finish.

This un-oaked wine has subtle aromas of exotic citrus with hints of grape-fruit acidity and a finish of minerality.

Very dark purple in color, this wine has aromas of currants, black plum and fresh tobacco. Medium bodied with silky tannins and flavors of milk chocolate and blackberry with mocha and pomegranate on the finish. The wine is approachable and very drinkable now, but will mature beautifully for years to come.

Winemaker Antonio Ribeiro and his wife Sara Dionisio raise their Encruzado in stainless steel for a bright and energetic white with while appealing, lees-y roundness. Exotic aromas of grapefruit, passionfruit, and banana leaf, with yellow floral, hints of fennel and green herbs. There's no shortage of tense, mouth-watering acidity on the palate of pear, lime, aloe, and clover

Sourced from throughout the county, this approachable wine is a blend of 44% Zinfandel, 29% Merlot, 15% Malbec, 7% Petit Verdot and 5% Riesling—not something one sees every day. Leather and tobacco lean forward aromatically, as red and black fruit mingle along a smoothly integrated well-made frame of lushness.

Lively, medium depth garnet red with an intense pink rim. The nose stands out for the intensity of fresh aromas of ripe red fruit, wild strawberries, currants and raspberries. Viña Alberdi is characterized by a notable food-pairing versatility. It is an ideal companion to appetizers, barbecues, perfect with rice, pastas and stews, and great with lightly-grilled meat.

Schrader's incredible cult Cabs run hundreds of dollars a bottle, but if that's not in your budget, you can still get a taste of their wines through their Double Diamond program. Originally offered only to Shrader's mailing list, the Double Diamond Cabernet Sauvignons are wines of extraordinary quality. Spectacularly rich, complex, and concentrated fruit with great bottle age.

In addition to his estate wines, Jean-François operates as a négociant buying fruit from several neighbors to make varietal wines under the Hexagonales label. The Pinot Noir comes from a parcel of Pinot Noir in Saint Pourçain on chalky clay limestone soils. It is fermented & aged in tank preserving the crisp and crunchy red fruit typical of Pinot Noir grown in the Loire Valley.
