Favorite Bottle Of Wine Under $10?

[IronSides]

I was inspired by today blog post in bhg.com about good wines for cheap! My favorite one listed in this post is the Smoking Loon Cabsauv and my favorite one I can think of off the top of my head is RavensWood cabsauv (And yes I like Cabernet Sauvignon) assuming that you can find it under $10 sometimes package stores will charge a little more. What are peoples favorites under $10?

my fav

my favorite wine is a nice bottle from Trader Joes. I recommend most of the white wines. They are cheap and very tasteful. I love the aroma. I would love to chat some more about it. Why don't you send me a mess. I learned a lot when I visited my best friend in Napa, California and we did a wine tasting. It was amazing. I am so jealous she lives there. I just love wine!! Its the best after for a nice long day.


Cheers, Liz

Being used to huge taxes on wines, its amazing here. We reagularly drink really pleasant wines for under 5euros, thhe same ones we would be paying a lot more for in UK. *sigh* oh well. We are meaning to try a good Barolo soon, but they ARE more pricey, and we are working our way through a variety of under 10E wines.

The ones I make myself...

I think I have the cost down to about $2.50/bottle USD now.. (Getting hard to refigure the cost on the bottles, since I recycle/reuse them)

Two from Portugal, Charamba, and a Vinho Verde.

 

[Caine]

BV Coastal Estates Cabernet Sauvignon 2004, from Sonoma County, California. Best Cabernet I have ever had, regardless of origin.

 

[YT2095]

Barley Wine.

 

[BreezyCooking]

While I can't single any one out, I will say that I've been most pleased with under-$10 brands of Pinot Grigio, & always have one in the fridge for cooking & an occasional glass. Whether domestic or imported, they've all been very nice & well made.

I love Pinot Grigio too.
My favorite red lately is Coppola- Merlot. It costs more than $10.00 but not by much and is certainly worth the extra couple of dollars.

Turning Leaf Merlot
Little Penguin White Shirah
Beringer's White Merlot
Madison Ridge Zinfandel
Guess I drink alot of cheap wine!!!
Bottom's up with love and energy, Vicki

Ravenswood,all of them

Tat, this one -- "Ravenswood,all of them" -- has me confused. Most of Ravenswood's wines cost a good deal more than $10. so all of which do you mean?

My faves? Banrock Station Shiraz, Chardonnay, Sparkling Chardonnay;
La Vieille Ferme, both red and white;
Perrin Reserve, both red and white;
Concha y Toro, Cab/Merlot and Syrah/Malbec,
Banfi, Col di Sasso and Le Rime.
