27 Budget Wines To Add To Your Rotation ASAP



There was a time when I never met a glass of wine that I didn't like. I always preferred reds in the winter and rosés in the summer but that was pretty much the limit on my wine preferences. Ever since I moved to actual wine country in Northern California four years ago, I've become a bit more discerning but still convinced you don't have to spend a ton of money on wine to a) enjoy it and b) score a near-perfect bottle. National Wine Day is May 25 and as good a reason as any to sit back and enjoy a fresh, new sip. Heck, host a wine tasting with your gal pals and try a few! We've rounded up the best cheap wine options $25 and under. Bookmark this page so that next time you're faced with rows and rows of unfamiliar labels you'll find one that's sure to please. Cheers!



WHITES


Nobilo Sauvignon Blanc

Nobilo Sauvignon Blanc $10

Brit + Co's Product + Growth Lead Jemal says he first fell in love with this one when he discovered it at Trader Joe's. The New Zealand sauv goes perfectly with seasonal fare like light seafood dishes, lemon herb chicken and summer salads. Fresh, citrusy and a subtle herbal hint, it's a palate pleaser for sure.


Cline Farmhouse

Cline Farmhouse $13

This has become my go-to summer table wine: crisp, clean with a hint of tropical fruit and lime. If you're ever in the Sonoma area the winery/ranch is a charming, unpretentious place to picnic, taste, and hang (kids welcome!).


Jadot Bourgogne Chardonnay

Jadot Bourgogne Chardonnay $16

This has been a favorite of B + C's Chief Revenue Officer Matt since the start of the pandemic... a fresh, medium-bodied chard with a mix of vanilla, honey, citrus aromas. Pair it with charcuterie, pork, or your summer lobster roll.


Black Girl Magic Riesling

Black Girl Magic Riesling $20

This Monterey International Wine Competition 2021 gold medal winner is mildly sweet with a tangy citrus flavor (with hints of tangerine and jasmine, yum!). It pairs perfectly with spicy seafood pasta and seasoned chicken dishes.


Fifth Moon Gr\u00fcner Veltliner

RD Winery Fifth Moon Grüner Veltliner $25

Rated at 92 points from Wine Enthusiast, this peachy clean with a kick varietal has a hint of wasabi and lime. Try it with sushi or Indian food!

PINK + ORANGE


La Vieille Ferme Ros\u00e9

La Vieille Ferme Rosé $9

My mom tribe and I love this French rosé and it's one of the best cheap wines from Trader Joe's. Light, fresh, and balanced, it's the perfect warm-weather wine with a bit of currant/cherry aromas.


RELAX Pink Ros\u00e9

RELAX Pink Rosé $11

B + C's social lead Mallory is all over this fun, fruity Spanish Rosé with fresh aromas of strawberries, raspberries and cherries. The pink bottle is perfection too.


Cellars Dei Can Suriol Azimut Brisat Orange Wine

Cellars Dei Can Suriol Azimut Brisat Orange Wine $14

This organic orange wine hails from a Spanish family-owned winery in Alt Penedes, a province of Barcelona that's famous for producing fine wines and cava. Orange wines are made by leaving the skins on white grapes during fermentation - this one is fun and light and a great convo piece for your next gathering.


Chateau d'Esclans Whispering Angel Cotes de Provence Ros\u00e9

Chateau d'Esclans Whispering Angel Cotes de Provence Rosé $16

Another Matt favorite: Whispering Angel is a dry, full-bodied wine with fresh aromas of strawberry and red raspberry.


Cote des Roses Ros\u00e9

Cote des Roses Rosé $17

I love a grapefruity rosé and this one fits the bill and then some. Summery, fruity, rosey, this award-winning wine is fresh, full and totally delicious. The glass cork is also a nice touch.


Avaline Ros\u00e9

Avaline Rosé $20

Cameron Diaz's Avaline Rosé is delicate and dry, perfect on a hot summer day. The organic blend has a hint of melon and citrus zest — refreshing!


Fifth Moon Ros\u00e9

Fan of Jolly Rancher watermelon? Strawberries and cream? The finish here is a mix of both and the wine pairs great with oysters, caprese, and grilled fish tacos.
Wolffer Summer In A Bottle Rose Cotes De Provence

Wolffer Summer In A Bottle Rose Cotes De Provence $23

This summery wine is as delightful as it looks — that bottle! Take in the wonderful aromas of tangerine, citrus, and peach and pour. It makes a great hostess gift.


breaking bread rose

Breaking Bread 2021 Rosé $24

This Zinfandel Rosé is certified sustainable and hails from Dry Creek Valley in Sonoma County. Refreshing is an understatement. Its light and breezy taste makes it especially drinkable on a warm summer day - think cherry creamsicles savored at the beach. We'll toast to that!


st. francis wine

St. Francis Winery Rosé $25

Take in the fresh apricot, elderflower, and rose hips aromas while sipping this clean raspberry-buttercream pour (with a hint of lime zest, yum!). Pair with your favorite summer peach recipe for the remaining summer days.

REDS


\u200bCampo Viejo Rioja Tempranillo

Campo Viejo Rioja Tempranillo $9

A dinner table is never complete without a bottle of wine, said a friend's dad once — and I agree. From juicy burgers to savory empanadas, this Spanish dry red with sweet notes of vanilla and spice makes the perfect companion to any savory meal.


Jadot Beaujolais Villages

Jadot Beaujolais Villages $13

Serve this crisp, fruit-forward, juicy wine at your next BBQ - it goes great with grilled meats and goes down smooth. Who says you can't enjoy a red in summer? If you do, this one's for you.

Like digging into a rich chocolate cake, this 96-point award-winning red blend is big, bold, and cocoa-licious. Enjoy with BBQ rib, berry pie, and grilled burgers.

SPARKLING


Mionetto Prosecco Brut

Have something or someone to celebrate this summer? Pop the cork on this dry, fresh, and light award-winning brut. If the fruity bouquet doesn't win you over, the hint of golden delicious apples will. Yum!


Cupcake Sparkling Ros\u00e9 Wine

Cupcake Sparkling Rosé Wine $13

Fun name, fine bubbles. This popular sparkling comes at a great price and hails from vineyards bordering the Adriatic coastline in northeastern Italy. Expect flavors like fresh raspberry, wild strawberry and mandarin orange and enjoy with seafood ceviche!
