October Wine Picks for Under $10

Fall is officially here, and what better way to enjoy it with a couple of fantastic wines from Bordeaux, France.  Both wines featured this month are from Chateaux de Legarde, which is the largest organic vineyard in Bordeaux, covering almost 450 acres.  The wines are also Non-GMO Project Verified, so you can feel good about drinking them!

Les Hauts de Legarde Blanc-Sec is primarily Sauvignon Blanc, giving it a bright floral aroma with notes of citrus, apple and pear.  This blend is well balanced with a slight minerality on the finish.  It is great when paired with seafood, especially grilled salmon, and salads.  Les Hauts de Legarde Rouge is a fruit forward blend, with notes of black currant and blackberry.  A slight smokiness carries you straight through to a lightly oaked finish.  It tastes great alongside pork, red meat, rich pasta dishes, and cheese.
