Claymore Metala Best Wines Under $50

We have long been fans of Claymore. The Dark Side of the Moon is their best and most underpriced wine, offering spice, dark fruits, raspberries, concentration, and plenty of fine tannins. As always, there is a smoothness and polish to this wine which belies its sub $30 price point. Learn More

Claymore have a habit of producing excellent Riesling and that habit is no danger here. Displaying everything you’d want in a young Riesling, lifted aromatics, crisp acidity and succulent lime. A silky palate that extends to a long dry finish just leaves you wanting more. Learn More

As good as the previous vintage was, this is better. Learn More
