What's your favorite wine?

For us wine drinkers, I'm curious about your favorite "drinking" wine (as in, something uner $15 a bottle).

I'm partial to the 2002 Hill of Gold Shiraz (Rosemont Estates) and the 2002 Coppola Premium Claret. Right now, I'm drinking a 2003 Coppola Zin.

This one isn't >$15, but I had a wonderful bottle of wine last night: a 2009 Bentley-Lane Pinot Noir. Runs about $25, which is more than I typically spend on a bottle, but I will definitely buy this one again.

It's tough to find a good pinot noir at or below the $15 price point.

MacMurray is good and can be found right at $15.

Cambria Julia's Vineyard is an excellent pinot noir in the low $20s

A standard in my home is Chateau Ste Michelle's reisling.

My wife just finished up a bottle of the CSM Riesling. I'm not a fan, but I don't like Rieslings. Too sweet. At the wine shop last night, the wine dude that turned me onto the Pinot Noir also suggested a Moscato. We haven't opened it yet, but I'm interested.

That's a decent bottle. I've gone through a few of those myself.

But she showed me these massive stacks of ruined bottles of wine because of problems with the cork.

She also said Australia and one other place I can't remember have almost completely moved away from corks. But in other places it's associated with cheap wine still. Anyway, it was all very interesting.

Yep. The Pinot Noir I had last night was a screw top. Didn't bother me at all.

Australian Red Shiraz is one of my favorite types of wine. Here is one of my favorite brands, great flavour, not too much $$ yet not real mainstream either.

One winery I get stuff from has gone to screw tops for their white, but still corks their reds. Pretty much everything else I get comes corked, although I do get the odd red here and there with a screw top. I'll have to start paying more attention, but I know the last couple that came with screw tops were Australian wines. Interesting...

I'm pretty sure at Costco or Sams Club it's like $15 a bottle. Good stuff

Wow, that Moscato is SWEET (as in, sugary). Mrs. FMB! likes it; I pour the remainder of my glass into hers.

To be fair, the flavor of the grape is nice - very fruity - but it's just really, really sweet.

I love the local NC scuppernong wines. A little sweet but great grape flavor.
