Batussi Alentejo Red 2007     Portugal

This soft and easy-drinking red from Portugal's warm Alentejo region is a real winner. The aromas are very pretty with notes of leather, red berries, earth, floral and chocolate. It's dry, with a plush texture, and more flavors of mixed berries and a touch of vanilla leading to a medium-long, cocoa-tinged finish. It would make a great party red or serve with grilled veal cutlets.

Chateau Montfort Vouvray 2008     France

Abundant fruit and honey flavors bound together with the right balance of sweetness and acidity. The harmony of Vouvray - just a touch of sugar, but still officially dry - is immediately apparent and genuinely appealing.  Try this with delicately flavored foods such as trout and other fresh-water fish as well as chicken and veal. A delightful candidate for outdoor dining, and with many salads, lighter pasta and rice dishes.
