Strange that with all these awards CGI fails to mention any of them on their website!

There are good-value wines coming from many regions of the States – affordable, everyday-drinking wines that are really
worth trying. Here are a few to get you started:

Robledo Sauvignon Blanc, Napa Valley, California ($140 from California Grapes International, Unit 13, 23/F, Hong Ma Industrial Center, 2 Hong Man St, Chai Wan, 9197 1043), recently won gold medals at the 2009 West Coast Wine Competition as well as the Gold Oyster Award in the 2009 Pacific Coast Oyster Wine Competition. Robledo is perfect for drinking with these mouthwatering molluscs and is crisp and refreshing with great acidity.

Radog Pinot Noir, Napa Valley, California ($300 from California Grapes International, as above), is a great, affordable Pinot Noir. A new label from the Tudor winery, this wine is designed and targeted at a younger drinking population. Ripe fruit, easy drinking and medium body all characterise this wine, which is one of the better Napa Pinot Noirs on the market. If you see it in a restaurant or bar by the glass, give it a try.
