riesling. if you don't like riesling, you don't like life.
1) Mollydooker 'The Violinist' Verdehlo. Awesome white. Makes me smile.
I love the floral qualities of Cabernet Franc. It's such an underrated grape by itself. The Chinons of France are good, but they don't hit my "pleasure center" like the California varietal does.
I've had this Montepulciano quite a few times and always find it delicious. Medium bodied red. Just enough fruit, not too spicy or complex. It's about 8 bucks at my neighborhood market. Thumbs up.
^^ That stuff is good, maybe the best cheap wine out there.
THere's some good stuff coming from the really rustic-- or, at least, undiscovered by wine drinkers-- parts of Italy. Sicily and the boot region are particularly good these days for friendly, large, cheap reds.
