Kyra 2010 Dolcetto, $17
In the Piedmont area of Italy, there are two everyday drinking wines. One is Barbera and the other is Dolcetto. There is a bit of acidity and a bit of tannin but not too much to alienate most foods. Although the Italian translation is “dear sweet one,” Dolcetto is fermented dry. Kyra’s version has fresh dark berries, rosemary and ever so slight floral notes. Salude!

Chelan Estate 2007 Pinot Noir, $20
Pinot is a challenging grape to grow and vinify, and one reason Pinotphiles are always on the hunt for the Pinot Noir Holy Grail. The folks at Chelan Estate have been doing a good job at making Pinot Noir for around a decade and 2007 was a good year for grapes. Bing cherry and pomegranate dominate the palate with hints of fennel, baking spice and caramel. The wine is silky but also has an agility to rally around different kinds of food.

Milbrandt Vineyards 2010 The Estates Syrah, $20

Boysenberry, Bing cherry, black pepper and toffee make up this smooth Syrah. The acids and tannins are well balanced and stay in the background. This would be a welcome change up from the more traditional Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot. F
