Nectarines, plums and apricots

This week?s food chat was all about the best in late-summer fruit ? cherries, peaches, plums and nectarines ? while the wine chat focused on understanding your own personal wine style.

Wine chat panelist and columnist Michael Godel also shares seven alternative wines to look for this coming August holiday long weekend.
