Cinnabar Mercury Rising Red 2004 ($19.99)
Bordeaux Red Blends from Central Coast, California

Root 1 Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 ($9.99)
Cabernet Sauvignon from Chile, South America



Any recommendations?

Re: What Wines Have You Enjoyed?

i like a lot of the trader joe's red wines (not just two buck chuck). even though the majority of the wines are cheap, they are extremely tasty for the price. most napa stuff is pretty damn delicious.

another decent one for the price is opal. about $6-$8.

some really good wine i've had came from a winery here called habersham winery. absolutely delicious in helen georgia up in the mountains. bottles run for about $15 a bottle. http://www.habershamwinery.com/main.html

Re: What Wines Have You Enjoyed?

my table wines when i was in BDX and got them for $10 a bottle were Mouton Cadet and Dourthe, roommate was friends with the Dourthe people and we got cases mad cheap. I saw them in korea for $45 a bottle. fuck!

I get Saint-Emilion stuff when i feel classy

my friend owns Chateau Vieux Moulin, but i think she's going bankrupt and doubt you can get her stuff outside of the BDX area. her wine is kinda shit anyway, haha

I'm a big fan of Red and White. Not so keen on Rose though. Hope this helps.

Definitely try Root:1's cab.





^^this refers to the root of the grape vines that are grafted, unlike root:1, which comes from the original root.

If I can find the name of the german riesling (a spaltese) I had at Del Frisco's in Manhattan I'll post it, it was just the house wine, but it was seriously good.

Nice !

Didn't sample too much local wine while I was in sardegna - but do love italian wines.

I love the northern italian wines Barbera D'Asti etc.
