A common misconception about wine is that is has to be expensive to be good. The fact is that anyone with good credit can lay down a Visa card, spend big, and get a tasty bottle. But the real fun is in finding wines that cost a fraction of the price of expensive bottles but have the same or higher level of quality. The secret is that these great inexpensive wines are out there—and there are lots of them to boot. Here are 10 outstanding wines for under $20 to get you started. —Jordan MacKay

PRESENTED BY BERTOLLI

ROEDERER ESTATE NV BRUT, ANDERSON VALLEY ($16)
The tres elegante French champagne house brings its sparkling know-how to the rugged wilderness of Mendocino County to produce California’s most affordably excellent bubbly. Think crisp and citrusy with a toasty finish and a lusciously smooth texture.

GRUET NV BRUT, NEW MEXICO ($15)
Think New Mexico’s too hot to grow grapes? Not at the chill of 4,300 feet, in some of the highest vineyards in the country. A solid 24 months of bottle aging help this sparkler meld its bright apple aromas with an impressively feathery texture.

2005 BERINGER KNIGHTS VALLEY ALLUVIUM BLANC ($12)
Texture, baby: Cool, smooth, and flowing like a satin robe, this wine casually provides understated richness like it’s no big thing. Flavors of honeydew melons, figs, and orange peel only add to the spread.

2006 BURGANS ALBARIÑO ($10)
Insanely good for the price, this crisp white from Spain’s green western coast radiates lemon, orange, and mineral notes. It's the perfect wine for fish and shellfish or just sipping on a sunny afternoon.

2006 POMELO SAUVIGNON BLANC, CALIFORNIA ($9)
Can one sauvignon blanc be all things to all people? This one proves the answer is yes with tangy grapefruit for the type A, vanilla and honeysuckle for the laid-back, and a long finish that goes all the way.
