    Epicurious Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay

    For Epi's first ever foray into wine making, we went with a dry, crisp, barely-oaked chardonnay that's rounded out with just a touch of chenin blanc, and a cabernet sauvignon that's fruity without being sweet. Meant for people who love to cook, these wines work just as well in a pan sauce as they do in a glass. $16, Epicurious Wine
