When I'm not eating but still drinking, my wine choices change significantly. I prefer wines with high fruit and low acidity. A little tannin in the reds is fine.
Oaky, buttery Chardonnay has always been my "go to" white.
For reds I lean toward the Bordeaux style blends and the Rhone varietals.
Here are some current favorites - all available at the Market:
2009 ZD Chardonnay (California)
2009 Eric Kent Sarapo Tessa Chardonnay (Sonoma)
2007 Bridesmaid (Cabernet, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petite Verdot and Malbec - Napa)
2007 Big Basin Mandala Syrah (Santa Cruz, CA)
2008 Gorman Pixie Syrah (Washington)
2009 Herman Story On The Road Grenache (California)
