White- Corton Charlemagne – but it’s just way to expensive for me to drink all the time. If I drink white wines they need to be dry and I prefer a white Burgundy.
Reds- Normally St.Emillion, Amarone’s, heavy dry wines, although I admit that Forest turned me on to a few awesome wines and I trust his judgment.
So Forest I’m looking for a nice deep red in the $15.00 range. Toasted Head is ok but I think there’s better.
There’s something about French wines that have a certain kind of magic. I’m open and try wines from all over the world. There are some New Zealand wines that were pretty damn good. Still a nice oak cured wine is my first choice.
Hey you know they’ve started growing a lot of grapes upstate Florida. In fact there are several agricultural programs to promote this crop. I haven’t’ tired Florida wine any but wondered if anyone had?
Forest you seriously need to be living in the country with a fabulous gazebo covered with grape vines.
Hit me up with some wine choices.

i have a verry nice rhone right now for 22 I think ( have to check the price)
we have a stunning shiraz from down under that is AMAZING! 28.00 per bottle.
i know one lucky board member with a case on the way to his house as we speak before it sells out, and it aint serge
its tough to get a good boutique red for under 20.00 as the case lots are small and they have to make their money on 300-600 cases on avg.
