" Some club members have phoned or e-mailed us, asking when we will feature one or our fine Pinot Noirs in our wine club. Honestly, we wish we could, the the quick answer is, blame it on the movie "Sideways". So much interest has peaked in this alluring varietal that demand is at an all time high..." I too am trying to learn more and slowly doing so. Being a member of a wine club is starting to increase my knowledge. They send you two bottles ( a red and a white ) every other months with a write up on each one. It is a neat way to learn more about wine. Mine is a lower end deal, around $30-$35 including delivery. |

http://www.steelewines.com/index.html It is a winery I stopped at and enjoyed the wine. I have only gotten 2 shipments, so I can not say I recommend it. It has worked so far, though. The good thing is it is free to join and you can contact them at any time to cancel. There are lots of winery out there offering all kinds of different wine club memberships. |

Admittedly, I am much more of a beer guy than I am a wine guy. But I found this one to be good. |

Gundlach Bundshu Red Bearitage is a great wine for $15. It is a Red Meritage. |

Has anyone mentioned Boone's Farm? Their Strawberry Hill is exquisite.

I have it set up to where i read the most recent post first. They also have an Orange Hurricane and several other varieties. What can I say? It may sound weird, but sometimes it's fun to go out and buy some really cheap wine and watch movies. |

I have a knack for identifying cheap wines. They're the ones that taste better.
While I seldom drink, I think I tend to like sweeter wines more often, and those are often the cheaper wines. Liebfraumilch springs to mind as one that I usually think is pretty good, and I think the critics rank most Liebfraumilchs between sputum and sweat.
