I thought this Bubbly was just a release of last year's Bubbly, but it is a different grape blend.

It is a mix of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay; last year it was simply Pinot Noir.

California wine sales are down significantly; wineries are selling off wines that have been stockpiled.

Is this one of those wines, or is this a value-priced wine that is priced accordingly?

Well, take a $14.99 chance and find out for yourself.

Daou The Pessimist Red 2023

The Daou Pessimist is a value-priced red blend-for them!

It sells on the internet for between $18 and $26, but an Illinois wine seller had it this week for $12.

They have a different wine value every week.

This is an extremely tasty wine.

While most people who do not live in Illinois won't get this bargain, there are bargains everywhere to be had.

The current wine economy is creating bargains.

Take the time to check wine shop adverts and find awesome wines at affordable prices.

19 Crimes The Wolfman Red Blend NV

This is a Red blend from Treasury Wine Estates, a high-end wine company.

The 19 Crimes in question are the 19 offences that could get you sent to the Australian Penal Colony.

The Wolfman Red is licensed from Universal City Studios and uses glow-in-the-dark labels and animated labels.

This looks to be the same Red Blend as the typical 19 Crimes wines, so this isn't a completely Halloween wine.

It is a fun wine, and it is an easy-to-sip wine.

Just look out for the FULL MOON!

Liberté Paso Robles Pinot Noir 2023

Liberté wines, the Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir, have been $9.99 at Trader Joe's for 15 years.

These are wines from Ancient Peaks Winery, a family-owned and operated winery in the Paso Robles AVA.

This is a quality, value-priced Pinot Noir.

The Liberté website says the vineyards are within 14 miles of the Pacific Ocean.

This Pinot Noir would pair well with most folks' Thanksgiving Feast.

It is a quality, tasty Red wine that would not overpower a Turkey Feast.

Trader Joe's Platinum Reserve Paso Robles GSM+ 2024

This is a GSM+; the + is Cinsault, from one of the entities of McMyers Price Wines.

This is a top-quality winery from the Central Coast and directly from Paso Robles.

A GSM is a Red wine blend from the Rhône Valley.

Wineries from the Central Coast of California have been making wine that pays homage to France.

This is a value-priced wine from a top winery that does justice to both France and California.

Trader Joe's Reserve Napa Sauvignon Blanc 2025

Napa Valley has made Sauvignon Blanc since Robert Monfavi called it Fumé Blanc to get folks to drink it.

That's 50 or 60 years.

Since then, New Zealand has made Sauvignon Blanc a hot commodity.

Mondavi and Napa are synonymous, and years later, Napa Sauvignon Blanc still delivers.

Now Trader Joe's has a $9.99  entry into that world..

Value-priced ain't half bad!

This Cava is from a 130-year-old winery.

Their House Cava is Macebeo (grape) only, rather than the usual 3 traditional grapes.

This wine seems to be a relabeled wine from Torre Oria, a well-established Spanish Bubbly producer.

This Bubbly does not taste like the typical value-priced Cava offerings.

This $8.99 Aldi Bubbly drinks well above its price range.

A good wine (or Bubbly) is a good wine no matter the price!

Kirkland Signature Côtes Du Rhône Villages 2025

This GSM wine is one you wouldn't think twice about paying $17.49 instead of $7.49.

A solid, well-made, tasty Southern Rhône Valley Red blend.

The winemaker, new this vintage, is from a Châteauneuf-du-Pape winery.

He did an excellent job on this Costco value-priced Red.

Moon X Red Blend 2024

2015 was the first vintage CWF reviewed, and it is still a value option.

Back then, it was a dupe of the $40 Prisoner wine.

A rich, extracted Red blend.

Today, the Prisoner is still around, but not the force it once was.

The Moon X Red Blend 2024 is, today, more balanced but still true to its extracted roots.

Oh, by the way, this wine sells for $6.99, the same price as 2015!

Courtier California St. Helena Sauvignon Blanc 2025

A Negociant buys surplus wine from a winery and sells it under their own label at a discount.

The negociant never tells where the original wine came from; secrecy is important.

Well, not so much here; listen to the podcast!

A St.Helena Estate vineyard wine is amazing at $13; this is a good wine.

In the podcast, I mentioned barrels, and this wine was probably fermented and aged in Stainless Steel tanks.

Still, this is a must-try wine!
