One of my favorite wine bloggers, the Wine Curmudgeon, has just published is 2016 $10 Hall of Fame. Some of the wines on the list that we enjoy everyday are:
In the words of the Wine Curmudgeon himeself:
In the words of the Wine Curmudgeon himeself:
" Château Font-Mars Picpoul, a French white that “is everything picpoul is supposed to be.”
• The $5 Rene Barbier Mediterranean Red: “All I can say is that the Wine Curmudgeon is as surprised as you are.” I drink this wine so often, and marvel at how it does for $5 what others can’t do at $10."
The Picpoul is available at A Taste for Wine and Spirits, in Cohasset, MA (only place I have seen it). The Rene Barbier is found at our grocery store and Trader Joe's,
The Wine Curmudgeon also lists these wines we consistently buy and enjoy:
- Bogle brands. Always well made, consistent, and inexpensive. Available most places.
- Little James Basket Press wines - available at Whole Foods (at least here in Charlotte).
Anyway, enjoy searching for these wines. Wine-Searcher.com is a great web site to start! Many are not available in North Carolina, so I have not been able to try as many as I have wanted.
