Best Warm-Weather Wines $10 and Under

I discovered this blush when visiting with a friend that lives in Morro Bay. I'm definitely not a fan of blush wines but, it was part of our tasting and highly recommended. This is DELICIOUS and cheap, it's the epitomy of summer wines to me. Price: $9

This is another wine I discovered at Harmony Cellars with my friend. I really like light wines for a summer's day and this one is perfect! It blends Chenin Blanc, White Riesling and Chardonnay all for $10.

I got this out of Simple Magazine, as I did some of these wines and decided to give it a whirl. It's a perfect white, crisp, fresh wine that's perfect for fruit or salads. Price: $8

My favorite all-around Sangiovese. I love the earthy, full-body flavor of this wine and it's perfect with steak or any other meat you'll throw on the BBQ! Price: $7.50

It's a young lemony wine with a bit of fizz to it, perfect for shrimp, lobster or my fave summer meal, a crab feed. Price: $7

This is my boyfriend's all-around favorite. As a white wine guy, he doesn't like the heaviness of a typical Chard and loves this Riesling as a light, slightly fruity alternative. I like that it's not as heavily fruity as other Riesling's I've tasted. But, if you're a die-hard Woodsbridge Chard fan, you might not like it. My mom is one and she said it was too fruity for her. Price: $6

Ah yes...we do need a champagne on here, don't we? This wonderfully creamy Spanish version goes perfect with EVERYTHING! And who doesn't like a little bubbly by the beach? Price: $10

When I first saw this bright red wine, I thought YIKES! But, it's light and juicy that has perfectly blended notes of strawberries and spices. So, another one that's not too overpoweringly fruity. Price: $10

This delish red is a blend of FIVE red grapes,mostly Merlot, and berries, cherries, and a multitude of fruit flavors. Perfect for the BBQ! Price: $10
