What are your favorites?
I'd love to know what your favorite wines are. I often get stuck in a bit of a rut with the wines I like. I tend to stay with the same ones time after time so I'd love to hear what you think are wonderful wines so I can try them. I will try them all and post about each one. Leave your URL with your suggestion in the comment section so I can link back to you.

I've been stuck on white chardonnay for years :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not a big wine fan, but an old neighbor gave me a bottle of Shiraz as a thank you for keeping an eye on things while they were out of town. It was wonderful. I wish I knew what it was. I recall looking it up, but even the big liquor store in Chicago (whose name escapes me) didn't carry it. It was about $36 a bottle. I've tried other Shiraz, but I've found it awful, probably because if I spend $10 on a bottle that's a lot for me. That's probably why I mostly stick with beer. Lol!
ReplyDeleteI'm not too picky but I do stick with mostly red wine. My current favorite table wine is a Chianti. The name is Gabbiano (sp?) I think but I'm not sure because I drank it all and need to buy more - LOL! I pay about $9 a bottle for this one.
ReplyDeleteI just tried a very inexpensive cab sav called Bohemian Highway and it was not too bad! For about $7 you can't beat it!

White chardonnay? Is there any other colour?
ReplyDeleteAnyway...anything by Farella-Park...the anti big alcohol, Napa winery.
I've always loved the Italian reds. Just recently reviewed Carpineto's "Dogajolo" on
ReplyDeletehttp://whywineblog.com. Can find for around $10
Lambrusco is my all time favorite and Chianti is second. I don't drink wine too often but when I do these are my two to picks!

I like hanging out with a Cline "Old Vine" Zindandel from time to time, or any of the Pinot Noirs from Wilamett, OR. I will occasionally drop of bottle of McMannus Merlot or Cabernet, but use the BV Rutherford Cab when I want to bring the big dogs in. For Chardonnays, there is nothing wrong with KJ, but I like the Rodney Strong and the Sterling, who also make some interesting Sauvingnon Blanc. Most of the Fume Blancs can also be tasty.
ReplyDeleteAny Rioja wine. And I do mean any.
ReplyDeleteHmm...although you ask that..
ReplyDeletebut for me (Indonesian)
