Good cheap wines?

Question

Can anyone recommend some good cheap wines? Unfortunately, we don't have a Trader Joes near us, so we can't get 3 Buck Chuck. And I do like Yellow Tail, but I was hoping someone has other suggestions. Unfortunately, we're pretty limited to where we can get wine, so if the wine's available at Wal-Mart, even better. :)

I prefer red, but I also like white. :)

Answer 1

Sutter Home isn't half bad, and you might try Turning Leaf, Rodney Strong, or Mondavi

Answer 2

First, determine what grapes you like, pinot, shiraz, cab ect.

There are several really good Australian wines beyond Yellow Tail (and inexpensive as well). The Trader Joe wines are great if you live near by. There are value lines by most producers, try as many as you can.

I have found that the Spanish tempranillo and garancha, grapes are nice, and inexpensive. BTW the garancha is the cousin to the French Granache grape used in Chateauneuf Du Pape. Also try the South American Malbec grape.

Answer 3

You don't say if you prefer white or red, so I will suggest both.
In England Asda (Wallmart) stocks their own brand Claret.
This is a very acceptable red wine and is as cheap as this type of wine comes. e.g. £2.70.
For the same price you can buy a really good white wine fromChile. Namely Sauvignon Blanc.

Answer 4

Just look around. If you have a good wine shop in your area pop in. Even the nice wine shops have cheap stuff that tastes good. If not check out Beringer.

Answer 5

I love Arbor Mists Strawberry zinfendel, it is soo good, and goes with (almost) everything I cook!
