Discounters sell some great California Wine too. So we dropped by Trader Joe’s to see their offerings and price points. We were mildly surprised to find some great quality wines and very competitive pricing. Here are wines that we’ve tasted and won’t break the bank.

Chardonnay

J. Lohr – Arroyo Seco Monterey $11

Butter – California $14

Kendall-Jackson – Vitner’s Reserve $13

Pinot Noir

Meiomi – Sonoma Coast $22

Other Red Wines

Cline – Old Vine Zinfandel – Lodi $9

Bogle Family – Essential Red – California $9

Hahn – GSM Blend (you can generally find this at TJ’s, but not on this trip.)

J. Lohr Cabernet Sauvignon – Paso Robles $15

There are other California Wines at Trader Joe’s we’ve not sampled. Drop a $20 and experiment on a new wine. You’ll need to visit to see what the offerings in your area.
