I’m partial to pinot grigios, especially in the summer. I get the big bottle of Cavit at Crown Liquor or Costco. Costs around $10.60 at both places. Keep it cold and enjoy the summer!

Boxed wine is the best for making Sangria

Our house wine is delicious. We like red wine, and our favorite is smooth with hints of red cherry, touch of cinnamon, essence of earthtones, absolutely delightful Cabernet/merlot. It’s Frontera, Concha y Toro. I’m not going to tell you the cost, because you absolutely will not believe it.
Also for summertime, our favorite is a crisp, lineny, light Pinot Grigio, Citra. For a few dollare more you may want to try the Folinari. Two delicious crispy lovely white wines. If you try them, I’d love to hear back from you.

MD 20/20…I preferred the kiwi-lime and banana-red varietals.

Cheapest stuff I ever drank was MD 20-20 Pineapple. Never again. My favorite wine tastings were done by a shop in Virginia Beach that did a monthly “under $10″ wines. I got to discover a lot of wines before they hit it big and cost too much. My latest cheap, fun wine: Herding Cats from South Africa at 4.99. Chill it and drink it on the porch on a hot afternoon. Just not enough supply. You must have inbibed that Olde English at the same age I did the MD. LOL!!!

I don’t drink wine but I am LOL at “you always seem a touch classier than say, gripping a 40 ounce of Olde English.” I will pass this information on to my wine loving pals.
Thanks

I like Riesling Relax.(I can get it at the grocery store close to my house) It’s only like $9 a bottle in this cutesy blue bottle and one glass can lull me right into a peaceful evening and bedtime.

I save money on wine by taking the bottle of Nighttrain from the corner wino after he passes out.
