Hi,
What's good vintage for (French) $10-15 Merlots?
Thanks in advance.

Hi RG and unless you buy them a whale of a lot cheaper over there than we do here the pickings are slim. If you can get them, I'd suggest you look to Chile or to Argentinian Malbecs in this price range. WW

Thanx winoweenie!
But what's the preferred vintage (year) for the choices you mentioned?

You might look for a Montes Alpha Merlot from Chile. It would be in your price range. Almost any Argentine Malbec at that price point will work. Have not met one I didn't like.
