White Merlot. It’s not as fruity as a White Zinfandel, but not as complex as a burgundy or cabernet.

We “got lost” years ago and ended up at Fall Creek Winery near Tow, Texas. Best lost trip ever. Most wines are over $10.00, but take a look at their site. We bought a case of White Riesling before we left.

A bottle of Miller Light is great.

Marietta Old Vine Red, varies in price from $9.50 - $12.

2 Buck Chuck is not good wine; though, Trader Joe’s Coastal varietals are decent for @ $5.

Tia is a wine that was popular in the 70s 80s, but I still like it. Lambrusco not too dry not too sweet. A good red wine.

Barefoot Sweet Red (about $7) - had it at a friend’s with dinner and really enjoyed it. She said they go through a lot of it because they like it so much.

May not be easy to find as these are Canadian wines, but Pelee Island Baco Noir is excellent, especially when served with steaks or roasts. Their Monarch in a very good dry Vidal.

I lived in New Zealand almost 7 years and drank some outstanding wines, usually under $5 a bottle, although I splurged a few times for a particularly excellent Australian wine. Wine is a very big deal there. Now back in the U.S., wine is ridiculously expensive for anything nearly as good. I buy Trader Joe’s 2 buck chuck Cab. Sav. It’s not completely horrid. I don’t like Bare Foot or Smoking Loon even if they aren’t that expensive. Rosemont, if you can find it, is a split label from Australia. It’s pretty good, but I know it’s their “export quality” wine which means it isn’t their good stuff. I buy it once in a while if I see it due to nostalgia. Chile produces some good reds. I picked up a couple of Rex-Goliath Cab. Savs. on sale for $4.99 this week-end. A step up from the 2 buck chuck and not bad. I rarely drink white wine. There are very few I like. Pinot Grigio is the only varietal I find I consistently like. I love Pinot Noir, but it’s usually out of my price range, so it’s Cab. Sav. here.

The Stump Jump 2008 Shiraz. Wine Spectator Top 100 - 92 Rated - $8.99 a bottle at Costco. We consumed the better part of 3 cases and still have a couple of bottle in the rack.

I will concur with WellyP that the Alamos Malbec from Mendosa Valley Argentina has a great price point. The same goes for the Conquista Malbec from the same region. The value is so good because Argentina experienced hyper-inflation several years ago and is still low to our currency. Meaning its cost would be more like $15 to $20 per bottle from other locations, but it wouldn't be the same wine per the qualities of the Malbecs from Mendosa. There are some 'kind of' drinkable Cabs at around $10 but as with all wines everyone likes what they like, which is part of the fun of trying new wines. You probably have already heard or know this, but the more you get into wines, the favorites you enjoy over time usually become a dryer variety. Anyway enjoy and let me add that the Malbecs go great with steak. Oh, also my wife says the Conquista is more a mans wine because the flavors are a bit stronger and hit the pallate a little harder.

Corbet Canyon out of Chile sells a box-o-wine, 3 litres worth.

They have a nice little Cabernet. Very drinkable and good with food.

Around 12 bux.

Their Merlot - um... not so good.
