Washington Post Recession Busters

Here are Dave McIntyre's monthly recommendations of wines that are friendly to the palate and to the wallet (under $15): We've got two of them in the store

Col des Vents 2007 * 1/2 Corbieres, France, $9(Great Value)

This wine is so beautifully aromatic and floral that it triggered my spring allergies. In January. It is light in body and refreshing. buy now

Rosenblum Cellars Cuvee XXXI Zinfandel * California, $14

At full price, this wine doesn't qualify as a Recession Buster, but it is frequently found on sale in the Washington area. Rosenblum blends zinfandel from choice areas around California to produce this consistently good non-vintage-dated wine that serves as an excellent introduction to zinfandel and a good partner to basic meat or pasta fare. buy now

Salute!
