Eric Asimov offered his take on Happiness for $10 or Less today.
He inspired me to revisit some of my wine picks
Out of the lot I kept 5, all reds (sorry white wine drinkers) so it would not turn into a laundry list.
In no chronological order here they are:
From Spain, Wine from a Beloved Castle Castillo de Monseran (Garnacha)
Live in the Island of Sardinia (Italy), Monica, not the Singer
Mendoza (Argentina) calls next with Tango and Wine, Tamari Reserva Malbec 2005
France gets a Spot with A Great Petit Bordeaux from the Abbey, Les Vignes du Soir
Last of all, the Basque heritage in Uruguay, Close Encounters of the First Kind, Cisplatino (Tannat /Merlot)
No American wine as you can see. There are not many good ones to be found in that price range.
All 5 Wines are around $10.
Enjoy!
