Rodney Strong.
A few years back, DH and I spent a weekend on Cape Cod. We went out to dinner one night, and we were the only customers in the restaurant's dining room (it was the off season), so we had a waiter to ourselves. We ordered steaks and asked him for a wine recommendation. He suggested Rodney Strong Cabernet. We loved it!
Since then, we've tried their merlot, chardonnay, and sauvignon blanc, and we've loved them all. I find most American chardonnays to be too sweet, but Rodney Strong is an exception.
Then there's vinho verde. It's a lovely wine for a warm summer evening, and it doesn't break the bank.
And I tried this AMAZING chocolate port last year while doing the Connecticut Wine Trail. It's from Taylor Brooke Winery in Woodstock, CT (northeast corner of the state). Trouble is, you pretty much have to go to the winery to buy it.
