- JelloNJ - 04-12-2001 Hi All, First time post here. I was hoping I could get some of you experts to suggest a Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Merlot that I could give as a gifts. Looking to spend $25 dollars or under on each bottle. Hope that price isn't too cheap to come up with some good choices. Any Suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank You - winoweenie - 04-12-2001 Hi l JelloNj and welcome to the board. Let us know where your from and an answer will be much easier. WW - Innkeeper - 04-12-2001 Hi Jello from NJ, and welcome to the Wine Board. Cabernet: Chateau Les Fiefs De Lagrange, St Julien; Chardonnay: Tobin James, Radiance, Chardonnay, Paso Robles; Merlot: Bortoluzzi, Merlot, Collio, Azienda Agricola Borgo Tintor. - barnesy - 04-12-2001 Chardonnay: Rosemount Chardonnay Orange Vineyard Barnesy - winoweenie - 04-13-2001 These should be in wide disatribution in your area. Cab..Gallo " 1997 Barelli Creek " a lucious bottle of juice, and either the Blackstone Napa Merlot or the St. Francis Merlot 98 a bodacious drinkin' cup 'a juice. WW - Drew - 04-13-2001 ...and if you don't mind an Austalian blend, Cabernet and Shiraz, the '98 Penfolds 389 was just released and is selling here in Maryland for $24. The '98 Bridgeman merlot from Washington is very good for around $15. '97 Rutherford Ranch Cabernet ($14). Any of the Gallo single vynd. wines, Barrelli, Frei, Stefani can usually be found under $25 and are good deals. Also look to Oz (Australia). The '98 vintage is great. Rosemount "Traditional", Rosemount G.S.M., Rosemount "Hill of Gold" Cab and Shiraz, Pirramimma Shiraz, Peter Lehmann's Barossa Cab and Shiraz, A.D.W. Shiraz, Greg Norman Cab/Merlot and his Limestone Coast Shiraz are all $20 or less and I would love to receive as gifts! Drew - JelloNJ - 04-13-2001 Hey All, Thanks for all the wonderful selections. I just printed them out and will now do some shopping. It's great to be part of the board. Thanks again Jello - winoweenie - 04-13-2001 As the ole' Jazz tune goes " It Must Be Jello(Jelly),cause Jam don' shake like That." Have fun, Drink lots, Take no Prisoners. WW |
