I'm most down with Argentine and Spanish wines, seems like you cannot find a badly done Argentine wine, even if it isn't spectacular.

I like to keep a few bottles of Santa Rita 120 Chardonnay around, both for cooking and drinking.

If you can go $12-15, I would suggest Kendall Jackson Chardonnay (a very well known brand) or perhaps Genesis (Brand name) Meritage (blend of Merlot, Cabernet and Malbec) Red Table Wine. Both are excellent wines and well worth the increased price tag if/when you can afford it.

If you really want to know about wine, however, go to the library and do some research and then start tasting. The best wine is a wine *you* like.

And it is a bit of a ...well- it draws attention to oneself to be seen going into one of those stores.  It is more of a gawk then going into the adult book store- because people think you are a drunk if you shop there.  So to get in and out is my plan.

Innit. At a low point in my time as a cheapskate student I bought a bottle of £1.99 Rose from Aldi. I drank it all over the course of a 20 minute train journey. It did the trick.

How old are you? My family is from WV, where they also have the state store. Get over yourself, it's a bottle of wine for frigging sake.

I think you could benefit from a glass of water.

I am 47.        :-)   Maybe it is different since I moved across the river.   At the old place-   ....it may as well been a dry county.    The only people who drink are ones who are in and out of jail.   A portion of the houses wont even allow booze in the house of any type.    (let alone to actually drink it)

Status: offline 		What a bunch of pussies!  He wants "bang" for the buck.  Not one of you cretins mentioned the best cheap wine that has "bang".  The truly cultured in cheap wines all prefer Night Train Express 17.5% alcohol. 




Poor but acceptable substitutes:
Thunderbird 18% alcohol
Richards Wild Irish Rose 18% alcohol
MD 20/20 (Mad Dog) 18% alcohol

No . . . not Ripple!  It's only 11% alcohol. 
No . . . not Cisco! It's not wine, it's a beverage (wine cooler) with 13% - 19% alcohol.

*Beware the Thunderbird, MD & Wild Irish Rose wine versions that are only 13% alcohol. 

(for those that don't know I am joking . . . seriously, what were you thinking?)

I did not ask about wine coolers tho?  LOL.   Who wants to pay for a pretty bottle with sugar water?
