OT Wine Recommendation Thread

[davelj]

[quote=nocommonsense][quote=scaredycat]”alcohol is an acquired taste, so try to acquire a taste for the cheap stuff”….

somewhat OT from the OT of this thread, but apolitical, is the question of why Temecula wines are so high. I WANT to buy temecula wines but just cannot because theya re too expensive. i can get great stuff from EUROPE cheaper than temecula. what’s up with that? is it real estate prices?[/quote]

hahaa, my thinking exactly. If a person was told from the beginning that the $2/bottle taste was the best, then that $2-wine would be selling for $100 a bottle and vice versa now.[/quote]

Used to visit Napa/Sonoma/Mednocino when I lived in the Bay area many years ago. Visited Opus when it first opened with many others such as Jordan, Heitz, Diamond Creek, etc., all the biggies…

For moderate price, I second the dry creek Zin recommendation. there are many other excellent Zins made in the Dry Creek valley.

Also like Williams Seylem Pinot Noir, kinda pricey but IMO worth it, need to get on the list though…

So yours is pretty good. Congrats! I have never made any but think DIY is great…just haven’t seen it work with wine in the few samples I have had.
