The epicenter of value wines is Portugal, with more "Best Buy" distinctions than France, Spain, South America and even the United States. For the price, these wines rarely disappoint. Such is the case for the Quinta de Cabriz Dao Red, a former Wine Spectator Top 100 and a back-to-back Wine Enthusiast Best Buy. Explore outside the norm with a traditional blend of 40% Alfrocheiro, 40% Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo) and 20% Touriga Nacional that has classic Dao silkiness. Produced by Global Wines, this is the home to another Wine Buyer favorite Casa de Santar. It's a straightforward red to be sure, but the Cabriz vineyards with their granite soils and temperate climate allow for full flavors with lower alcohol percentages and a crazy long finish.

"Aromas of currants, blueberries, thyme and olives. Some dark chocolate and walnut, too. Medium-bodied with fine tannins and excellent balance. Tasty chocolate and spice notes at the end. Touriga nacional, aragonez and alfrocheiro. Drink or hold." James Suckling, 91 Points
