J. Lohr South Ridge Syrah

This Paso Robles winery makes an expansive lineup of ripe, fruity, value wines. The Wine Enthusiast annual Best Buy list has just been published, and this wine is Number One. It's still available but won't be for long. Generous aromas of berry pie, spice cake, and a lovely minerality add to a rich palate of cassis and boysenberry. Grab it while you can.

14%; $15 (Paso Robles)
