Alrighty then. Well my personal favorite is the Monte Lomas '05 Malbec. It drinks like a $35 and costs half of that, depending on where you shop. I stocked up around 8 bottle because I keep hearing they're gonna boost up to at least $25 after the new year.
I don't reall drink whites, and when I do I enjoy a good Sauv. blanc. California has some great one's for under $15 to just have around during the summer, or with fish/seafood.
Bogle makes good, moderately priced, Petit Syrahs. The name is a bit misleading because from my experience they are big and flavorful wines, probably my favorite for the cold weather/winter season we're getting into.
As you can tell I hardly spend more than $20 on wine. Not that I haven't done it before, but at the rate I go through them at my place it's hardly worth it. Usually will go through 2-5 bottles a week, depending on what's going on. Most of my friends know that when they come over a good "gift" is to just bring a bottle of wine. Instead of flowers, as is customary, after my performances I usually get wine as a congratulations.
On any random night there's anywhere between 25-35 bottles at my place, half of them won't be touched for the next 5-7 years. Most of them are $40+ per as it is - hence why if I buy anything to drink right away it's cheap.
