Good Wines for Under $9.00
By TheConspicuousConsumer • Oct 13th, 2008 • Category: DrinkAs a lover of fine wine, I so often find myself focusing on bottles of wine that cost $50, $60, or even $150 dollars or more. However, that doesn’t mean that I don’t enjoy the occasional inexpensive bottle. In fact, often as not, the bottle that is open in my house cost me less than $9 or $10. Why? Because it isn’t necessary to open up a 2001 Grgich Hills Cabernet Sauvignon or 2003 Roessler Savoy Pinot Noir (my personal favorite) to enjoy a glass of wine.
Here are a few good choices that you can find for less than $9:
La Vieille Ferme Cotes du Luberon Blanc 2007
This is a nice white wine from the Rhone Valley in France received an 86 from Wine Spectator. It’s a good, inexpensive wine to enjoy and can be had for around $7.99 a bottle.
La Vieille Ferme Cotes du Ventoux Rouge 2006
While it is usually priced just over $9.00, I included this nice Rhone Red because I believe that it is still a very good value. Wine Spectator rated the 2006 as an 86 out of 100. For a sub-$10.00 wine, this is a very good buy.
Columbia Winery Gewurztraminer 2007
“Bright, zippy and off dry, with tangy grapefruit, nectarine and pineapple flavors that show restraint even as they linger on the expressive finish. Drink now.”
