I'd really like to purchase a decent bottle of wine for me and my girlfriend. She will be out of town all of next week so I can drive and pick something up...
She loves white wine mostly...but drinks red on occasion. I mostly just drink beer but if she has some wine laying around I'll have a few glasses with her.
Tonight we drank some sort of $9 a gallon white wine and if it is cold enough it isn't bad. Any suggestions???
I don't have much money at all...but I would like to surprise her a little when she returns (NEXT Saturday).
Most White wine usually tastes better, but there are some great reds as well. just don’t think the more money you spend the better tasting it will be. you can pick up a decent bottle for $15-$20 bucks, Something she will appreciate anyways. you can pick up a cheap bottle of Merlot, Chardonnay or White Zinfandel pretty much anywere. Probably your best bet. My favorite is a red wine, very smooth and easy to drink, but I can’t think of the name right now, Cabernet Sauvignon or something, been out of the game to long.
fine wine is like a hobby to me..... i guarantee you she will love "columbia Crest" its a white wine with full body but not filling...... its about 20.00 i've spent more and had shit...this would be a great choice.
Try a [Yellow Tail] Shiraz or something of the sort. It's a great wine from Australia and is growing very popular at a very reasonable cost. You'd spot the bottle quickly...yellow wrap-around stripe with a kangaroo below.

Oh, this stuff is GOOD! I usually don't like reds very much, but this is the exception. I hear they have a rather good Merlot too. And, it's under $10 a bottle. Kendall Jackson also makes a good Reisling. It's on the sweet side, and a little pricier.
Sorry brotha...I can't do the "cold white wine thing"....ok maybe on occasion. However the best wine for the money is Black Opal...its a Cabernet/Merlot Blend and it is under $10.
The Yellowtail is good for the price...Ravenswood Merlot is good as well...If you go to a Trader Joes or World Market, they should have some good wine at a fair price.
Sauvignon Blanc is a versatile, generously-flavored grape that the French winemakers have lovingly exploited for generations as a natural companion to good food. Also called Fumé Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc is sometimes said to be more popular with experienced wine lovers because of its pronounced flavors.Yet there are so many styles of this varietal available that even newcomers to wines can find a Sauvignon Blanc to love.
