Here are two fruity reds from South Africa’s Guardian Peak — created by Jean Engelbrecht, owner of famed Stellenbosch winery Rust en Vrede, and golf legend Ernie Els. Both wines offer excellent bang for the buck and are widely available.

Guardian Peak 2006 Shiraz Western Cape ($15). Supple cherry and ripe plum aromas and flavors pick up touches of toasted vanilla, coffee and licorice on the smooth finish. Ready to drink now. Locate this wine online or in your area.
