Bernadette
San Francisco
Sparked by a boyfriend obsessed with Thomas Keller and the Zagat guide, Bernadette began learning about Bay Area cuisine; she can talk forever about local restaurants and the offerings at the Ferry Building! But what to drink with her most cherished dishes? Not a clue. A self-admitted wine "newbie", Bernadette is determined to discover some of the best wines under $50 and build a personal cellar of affordable yet delightful selections.

2008 Hanna - Sauvignon Blanc
Very pale golden color, notes of apple and peach, with a very crisp, yet subtly sweet palate.

2006 Chateau Montelena - Chardonnay Napa Valley
Slightly oaky, but nicely balanced. Hints of citrus and stone fruit, with a clean finish.

NV Allimant-Laugner - Cremant d'Alsace Rose
My favorite Cremant d'Alsace, this pink sparkler has slightly sweet strawberry notes, and a pleasant and easy palate. Very refreshing. Great quality at this price point.

2007 Ca Dei Mandorli - Brachetto d'Acqui
For some reason, I want to describe this fruity, sweet, slightly effervescent wine as "cute". Beautiful ruby color, hints of strawberry and cherry, and very light in alcohol, pairs nicely with dessert or as a standalone sipper.
