- AirRailey - 12-18-2002
Need help finding a gift for my boss. I'm the lucky one that drew my boss for secret Santa. To make in worse, he is a wine connoisseur.
The rule is we have to by something using the initials of their name. His initials are SE (or SCE).
I need to find a wine, under $40 that I can get in a decent wine shop (I don't have time to order it). It needs to be named with SE or SCE.
I've already tried to find Saint Clair Estates, but no one seems to carry it locally in Atlanta.
Thanks for your help.

Hi AirRailey and weklcome to the board. It isn't too much of a stretch so to give him the comfort of a fine bottle and to fall within your parameters buy a 1999 Silverado Estates Cabernet. A marvelous wine that hits in the 30-35 range. Just released so should be available at any of the fine merchants in your fair city. WW

Here's a for real list.
Seavy
Sea Ridge
Sebastiani
Seghesio - good choice
Selby
Sequoia Grove
Seven Hills
Seven Peaks
Sobon Estate - Got the SE thang and should be easy to find
Sonoma Creek
Stone Cellars
