Dirty Laundry Vineyard Not So Knotty Chardonnay 2013, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia Bc V.Q.A., Canada: This fresh, crisp BC white wine made from Chardonnay grapes and is unoaked, thus the reference to "Not so knotty" (wood). Reminds me more of fresh linens on a spring day than Dirty Laundry with aromas of lime and lemon zest. Pair with crossing off the last item on your to-do list. Drink: 2014-2017. 353144 14% D 750 mL  $21.95 Score: 89/100. September 5, 2015 Best Value White Wine. Remarkable Roast Chicken Wine Full Review
Brancaia Tre 2012, Tuscany I.G.T., Italy: A smooth, full-bodied pleasant red wine with aromas of dark plums and berries. Finishes with cedar spice and smoke from oak aging. This robust Italian red wine is a blend of Sangiovese (80%), with a splash of Cabernet and Merlot grapes in the remaining 20%, and are grown in the Chianti Classico and Maremma regions. The name Tre stands for the three grapes in the blend and for the winery's three Tuscan estates. Pair with pasta in a tomato meat sauce. Drink: 2013-2016. 164715 13.50% XD 750 mL  $24.95 Score: 90/100. September 5, 2015 Magnificent Meat Pizza Wine Full Review
