Shout out to Amanda & Other Winos!
The Washington Post has a
Tip Sheet for some wine advice. (Please note the link is a PDF file for which you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader.) They ask 6 stores what is the next big varietal and what’s your favorite ’screwcap’ wine. (FYI - for those who don’t drink much wine, real cork is getting expensive so many wineries are switching over to screw caps. They’re not just for the cheap and nasty stuff anymore. Plus you’ll never end up with a ‘corked’ wine with a screw cap.)
There’s a lot of stuff on there priced for less than $20. With the fall/winter entertaining season upon us, having a ready bottle of wine to take to your host/hostess is part of the bon vivant lifestyle. But finding a great wine for $10 or $15 means you can bon viveur quite frugally!
[EDIT] My French is not very good. It occurs to me that I use the noun and verb forms of vivant/viveur probably incorrectly. I have edited to fix this, but perhaps someone can definitely correct me?
