4EverRangerFrank Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Anyone have D?Agostino Montepulciano? It?s slowly making its way up the Hudson Valley liquor stores. I?m game when I can find it. Director?s Cut by Francis Coppola is a good drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlairBettsBlocksEverything Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I was recently introduced to Lambrusco. Basically a bubbly red wine. absolutely love it. there are crappy cheap versions. Basically if it comes in a twist off its garbage. But the wife and I were on a bit of a run, housing bottles of those lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paddynyc Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 A friend of mine turned me on to this cab at around $35 in New Jersey and I loved it. https://wineindustryadvisor.com/2019/07/09/booker-winery-debuts-harvey-harriet Harvey & Harriet is a continuation of the affordable luxury that Jensen champions. Consistently receiving high scores across all the major wine publications to rival quintessential Napa and Bordeaux varietals, Jensen’s wines aim to extend the message that ultra-luxurious, collector-worthy wine can exist without pretension at accessible price points.

siddious Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 I tend to stick with Cabernet Sauvignon, Beaujolais, or Malbec's when going with red. I know they're a very popular vineyard right now but Josh tends to be our go to considering taste vs. price. Tend to stick to Sauvignon Blanc in the warmer months. Bordeaux's or St. Emilion's when I wanna spend a bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Particularly with Malbecs, but I have found it to be true with Cab Sav's as well, theres a lot of really good stuff you can find for $10-15 at the right store. Keeping in mind I'm no connoisseur but I tend to stock up at Total Wine which often has some nice brands for good prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
