You've perused the aisles of Trader Joe's, letting your stomach lead you on a journey. But don't forget about your heart before heading home: the wine section is calling your name. TJs stocks an impressive selection of wine. Allow this to guide you as you uncork new bottles.

A well-balanced red wine, some rumors say that the Michael David Winery is behind the wine, although those remain just that: rumors.

Notes of raspberry jam, black pepper, and maraschino cherries dance across your palette. You'll want to be ready for this wine, it clocks in at 14% abv.

Save your pocket money for other things. This more than reasonably priced New Zealand sauvignon blanc is everything you expect. And isn't that a good thing when you don't know what tomorrow holds?

Crisp and fresh with a dry finish, its minerality is exactly what your heart yearns for.

The bottle gives off "you can't afford this vibes," but really, it won't cost you more than a single Andrew Jackson.

Like the ornate bottles, these flavors don't hold back. A creamy, floral flavor with hints of strawberry and blackcurrant, it finishes with a touch of spiciness. Maybe buy two bottles.

From the Trader himself, this is a product of Joe. Open the bottle and then start your dinner while this wine aerates. Once you give it that space, you'll dive in to find vanilla, spice, and dark fruit on the nose.

It makes for an excellent table wine, slightly dry, but still juicy with fruit notes lingering.

If you're a La Crema chardonnay devotee, this Trader Joe's wine staple is a must on your shopping list whenever you run into the store.

While this Bread and Butter Chardonnay is a shade lighter on the creamy flavors you usually find in an oaky chardonnay, for around $12, it sure doesn't hurt to have a stand in.

If you are interested in throwing down some extra cash, grab yourself a bottle of the J. Lohr chardonnay for another out-of-this-world buttery chard.

Beware the stare of Charles Shaw -- oh wait, nope, wrong Shaw. You may better know Charles Shaw as Two Buck Chuck.

You'll find tobacco and cola among leather, cherry, and cranberry in each and every glass.

It's a complex blend that's as smooth as they come.

Bubbly, crisp, and a touch of sweet fruit flavors, it's as wonderful on that first warm spring day as it is on New Year's Eve.

It has more body than most sparkling rosés; it's floral and crisp. You'll enjoy it while wearing your slippers or your favorite dress.

If the label doesn't draw you in enough to give it a try, maybe knowing this dry red is both fruity and complex with a light finish will pique your curiosity.

Jammy but not cloying, it's a great pick for those who usually reach for a tempranillo.

A blend of chenin blanc, muscat, and chardonnay, the label alone is worthy of a spot on your shelf if only to enjoy a touch of greenery in your home.
