This website I dedicate to wines under $15.00. Why this price point? First, wine professionals neglect this category. For some reason, wine professionals think that wine under $20.00 is absolutely unacceptable. The idea of this blog actually came from a conversation with some of my colleagues about this topic. I posed the thought that it would be cool to develop a wine list with good, value wines that could win a Wine Spectator award. Instantly, the response was that it would never happen. After this conversation, the idea of bringing value wines to the forefront stuck with me. I knew that I needed to be it’s champion.
Why focus on value wine?
This slight elitism brings me to reason number two for this blog, the fact that people do not want to spend a lot of money on a bottle of wine. This blog will steer you to wines I think are enjoyable, good for the price and delicious. I want to encourage people to include more wine in their lives and make it a part of every day. Do not hesitate to drink a bottle with nachos or have a daily glass of bubbles. I will show you how wine can go with anything you eat, from popcorn to hotdogs. Together, we will take the intimidation and stuffiness out of wine and make it as common as grabbing a beer from the fridge.
Have Fun!
Selecting a bottle should not be stressful or confusing, it should be enjoyable and exciting. Have fun impressing your dinner date with your selection. Decide to have bubbles with your bubble bath. What goes with my bbq? The world of value wine is vast and there is plenty of wines for us to explore. I want to help you discover new wines, as well as wines that become your daily favorites. Welcome-I hope you enjoy the ride.
