As the name implies, this rose is sexy. Gewurztraminer gives it a great perfume, but Syrah adds to its voluptuous body.

Pride Mountain Cabernet Franc
Its been a while since I've had it, but Pride sticks out in my mind as one of Napa's best Cab Francs, after my family's, of course!

Liz Dueland, Publicist for Champagne Mumm and Champagne Perrier Jouet:
Cuivason Carneros Chardonnay
I love this cool climate Chard for its tropical and lime flavors and its mineral quality.

Mumm Cordon Rouge
I always keep a bottle on ice to pop for company. It has rich, ripe flavors balanced by its celebratory image.

Ronie Reiley, Editor of Life of Reiley
Forestville Chardonnay
It is the most consistent Chard I've found for the everyday drinking price range. I always keep a bottle in the fridge for company or just unwinding.

Billecart Salmon Brut Rose
This is the perfect treat or self-reward. When served at the right temperature, its creamy, fruit flavors taste exactly like wild strawberries.

Annette Tomei, Consultant-Creator VinEducation and Wine Country Chef
Sauvignon Republic Sauvignon Blanc
Each year, the wine is made in a different region but it's always great. The 2004, from Marlborough, NZ, has that fresh cut herb flavor and racy acidity.

Three Saints Pinot Noir
Finally, here's an American PN that's sexy, smooth, not too full bodied and great for food. What more could a girl want?
