If you drink a box of wine

Ravenswood vintner's blend zinfandel is very good -- around $15. Big, somewhat jammy, but well-balanced with oak and acidity.

I've been happy lately with the wines from Yellow Tail (Australia), primarily the Cab/Merlot blend and the Merlot for about $7-8.00 a bottle. The whites not so much, I go more for a nice California Chardonnay. If I was really flush with cash, I'd go for some of the white Burgundies like Mersault (about $80-100 a bottle). Now THAT'S a fine bottle of wine...

+1 on the Yellowtail Cab/Merlot & especially their Shiraz...a good drink at a reasonable price. And a number of the Lindeman's, the Cabernets, Merlots and quite few of the Penfolds selections......You Aussies make some good wine at reasonable prices.....Thank you...

Actually, I'm surprised there's enough left over after we've had our fill to be able to export, but there you go.

I like our wines, and there are some great ones from NZ too. Some of those Chile wines are good too.

I miss wine.
