K&L's Best-Selling Wines of 2026: The Summer Edit

What do K&L customers actually drink? This is it. The twenty wines that outsold everything else in the first half of 2026 — from a $9.99 Vinho Verde to a 2006 Santa Cruz Mountains library Cabernet — ranked by bottles sold, with no scores and no spin. Alongside them: ten July staff picks including the second wine of Sassicaia and a $17.99 Crémant that drinks well above its price, plus eight summer whites and rosés every one under $35. Fifty years in, this is still the best list we publish.

In-Stock Whites and Rosés to Cool Off Your Summer

The best summer wines don't ask much of you. They ask to be cold, to be opened without ceremony, and to disappear faster than you planned. From Chablis to the Salnés Valley to the Sonoma Coast, here are eight bottles we'll be drinking until the fog rolls back in—every one under $35, most well under.

Sauv Blanc Season Is Here. These Six Bottles Deliver.

K&L Domestic Wine Buyer Ryan Woodhouse makes his case for Sauvignon Blanc as the ultimate summer grape—and backs it up with six picks spanning Dry Creek Valley, Coombsville, Rutherford, and Mendocino Ridge. From a $14.95 everyday crusher to a 50%-off Beckstoffer vineyard gem, these are the bottles passing through his refrigerator this season.
