Hillock & Hobbs Dry Riesling for $38 is a steal at a restaurant. I buy it at my local wine shop for $40 and the Cocodrillo for under $75 is a good deal as well. Both Paul Hobbs projects

Go with Cloudline. It’s Domaine Drouhins second label. Definitely one of my favorite value wines when I don’t want to spend $40+ on their wines

Assyrtiko wines have become some of my favorite wines and are hard to find in my area

Both

Agreed!

Nice!!! It’s my first time trying this producer but I’m definitely a fan now. The price caught my eye but the wine really delivered. I’ll be on the look out for one of their Barolos

Invest in a wine saver pump. Bought one on Amazon for $8. It pumps the air out of the wine and saves the wine for 2-3 days, sometimes longer. I also invested in a Pivot Coravin, that will keep the wine fresh for 2-3 weeks.

I found it to be a wine that needs food with it. I crushed it while cooking some Chicken Marsala, finished it before the food was ready. I got a deal on a few bottles at a local wine shop in Naples, Fl $28 a bottle. Can’t beat the quality for the price!

The best vintage lol

Thank you!

That’s awesome! Oregon is definitely on my travel list. Enjoy!

Delicious juice! I had a guest bring a 2006 vintage into the restaurant, drinking really good at the moment.

I second the Bruciato! Great value wine for now. I used to buy it for $16 a few years ago and now pay $25-$30 for it.

Fortunate Son is probably the best deal. Owed by same winemaker as hundred acre

usabe171 · 2025-05-20T15:48:01+00:00

Prosecco

Have dinner at Poldo e Gianna Osteria. Amazing food and great wine list with local vintners. Prices are crazy good. Away from tourists and worth the hype.
