ORIGINAL: Blue Shorts None. Quite frankly, I can't remember ever enjoying any bottle that was $15 or less, unless we go back 20 years. Any time I serve a "cheap" wine, my wife comments "are you trying to kill me?" Seriously, I've gotten to the point were I'll only drink cheap wines if there is no choice (party, gathering). Even then, I usually prefer to drink beer as opposed to cheap wine. I no longer buy "daily drinkers". We prefer to drink less, but of higher quality. The average price of the wines that we drink went from about $20 in 2008 to $50 in 2015. YMMV quote:
ORIGINAL: annerk Full Disclosure, I can't find the thread I started years ago about Daily Drinkers, and have lost all hope of finding it. That said, it was getting long in the tooth which can affect board performance--thinking Joe Le Taxi, Active Users, and a couple others should maybe be shuttered with Part Deux of each started as well. Anyhoo, if you had to name your top five picks of cellar defenders under $15 retail (not things you found on bin end for 75% off), what would they be... and why? THIS ... although my average price is ~$40-$45/bottle.
