Malbecs from Argentina can be wonderful and affordable, but its chief competitor for new grape to me is Carmenere from Chile - had a stunning version over the weekend that most would have guessed to be pinot noir, yet it had much more structure and cost only $18.
Albarino is a strong contender for white, yet my personal tastebud favorite would be roussanne. Gruner Veltliner would be a third choice.
Grigio and S/Blanc had their chances yet did not get it done.
