    Yeah, that's been a popular inexpensive white at Costco for several years. Really it was the first widely popular and well known New Zealand wine in the US.

      Well, step one is done - bought both, but they have to rest/assimilate a bit and I have to figure out what to eat to them - I mean, the Valdehermoso is 15 % - that's pretty much.

          Well, some people need the crutch given by the SW, others has the mental capacity to maintain such a list on their own

            I became partial to some of the more pricey Argentine stuff. Reccommended:

            2004 Yacochuya Malbec, Michel Rolland, La Salta
            2005 Val de Flores Malbec, Michel Rolland, Mendoza
            2005 Cuvelier Los Andes Grand Malbec

              I love red wine, particularly medium-to-full bodied. So basically Cab, Syrah/Shiraz and some blends.

              For Cab, I like Liberty School a lot (Paso Robles, CA). I found that I tend to like most Cabs from Paso Robles.

              Two blends I can remember off the top of my head:

              Menage a Trois - Cab/Merlot/Zin.
              Yalumba - Syrah/Viognier.

              I just tried a Cab/something/Cab Franc blend I think was Aussie, and liked it well enough. I can't recall the name of it right now though.

              As you will see if you look these up, I'm living in the $12-$20/bottle range here. The few times I've gone above that I've not found it worthwhile.

                Yup, I get it from Costco. This one is another favorite of mine, although not available at Costco:

                    With respect to wine areas I've actually visited, I've only been out to Mission Hill. Unfortunately the wine is not for export. I went in 2005, and their Merlot I quite liked.

                    2007 Cabernet Merlot

                    New Release! A full-bodied wine with complex notes of dark cocoa and spice combine with rich plum and ripe cherries on a layered palate. This wine has a long finish and pairs well with a range of meat dishes such as lamb stew, roast duck, and grilled beef, as well as a variety of aged cheeses.

                      Sorry for the lon response - you aren't on ignore

                      I have tried both and it's the usual, you pay for what you get. The difference is that you actually get something. The 60 DKK could easily become a daily wine and the more expensive could be a showoff wine.

                      I have got a bottle of Aventino 2006 from same area, and I'm looking forward to taste it (it's somethiing between - 79 DKK).

                              Tried a third - Aventino, and it's certainly a thumbs down. Neither price nor quality matches.
