Under $20? I am always looking for delicious wines to pair with excellent cheeses. Suggestions?

    The best wine I've every tried was called Chocolate Lab. Dark chocolate red wine. Yum!
    I've heard port goes pretty good with cheeses. Personally I'm a merlot kinda girl.

    Apothic Red is a good one!

  • Barefoot Pinot Grigio!!!!!
  • Under $20... Robert Mondavi's Private Selection Pinot Grigio (the Chardonnay is good as well), for cheaper wine - it's DE-LISH!

    Tormaresca Neprica Puglia, Italian Red great for under 20 bucks.

    Depends what you like.... I can find great bottles of red under 20 easily.

    That was going to be my suggestion. One of the best red wines I have ever had for the price.

    I'm a Zinfendel (sp?) girl. The best white wine I've ever had is called Gazela and it's from Portugal.

    Seven Deadly Zins is a good one for under $20.

    I usually buy all my wine from wineries (for around $40 a bottle) so I'm not sure what's out there but an excellent way to get GOOD wine for under $20 is to hit up BevMo's 5 cent sale when they have it. Its buy one, get the second for 5 cents. So if you buy 2 of a wine that is normally $30/bottle...you're getting 2 (at roughly $15/bottle now) genius!

    Anything by Oyster Bay, and if you live anywhere even remotely close to the Finger Lakes Wine Region, I HIGHLY recommend Billsboro Winery, Fox Run, and Anthony Road (in that order).

    Tripache Malbec. Awesomely good red wine for about $8.00. There are lots of Malbecs available from $7-$12 per bottle. All i've tried are pretty good!

    For Chardonnay, Rombauer or Frank Family. Those are over $20 but I can usually get them for around $20 when the grocery store has them buy 2, get one free or something like that.
