Avaline Red Blend ($24)
I hardly need to explain why a thirty-something would love a great bottle of wine for the holidays. What's worth noting is that this label, founded by Cameron Diaz, is vegan-friendly, made with organic grapes, and free of unnecessary additives and added sugars. And it's delicious. Take our former newsletter manager's word for it: she taste-tested three varietals and broke it all down in a detailed Avaline review.
Editor Quote: "Full disclosure: I rarely reach for a bottle of red (which may be no surprise after my review of the white). But here's the kicker — I really enjoyed Avaline's Red Wine. With hints of cherry and spice, this red managed to be a happy medium between light and rich, and surprisingly smooth. I described this wine as "delicious" and "way too easy to drink" when telling my friend about it, so it's safe to say I've finally found my go-to red." — Alida Araica, former newsletter manager
