I want a suggestion for a good wine to buy for a romantic evening?

bicentennialbuck asked:


I am going out with my wife Friday night and would like to buy a special wine that is better than a $10 bottle of beringer. She likes white wines and some reds but not white zinfendales. So I am at a loss as to what to buy. I would really like some suggestions on “good” wines to buy since we are not wine connoisseurs.

    Freixinet is a very reasonable sparkling wine like Champagne

    Reislings are great if she likes whites. They tend to range from semi-sweet to dry. They have a crisp taste that goes great with most meals. Try Fox Run Reisling or Hazlitts Reserve Reisling 2004 or 2005. NOT 2003, it *****. If you are leaning to reds, try a Pinot Noir from Williamette Valley. It runs about $15-$18 a bottle.

    Try a really nice bottle of pinot noir. See what pinots are on the wine list and ask for a recommendation. Pinot noir pairs well with a much wider variety of foods than all other reds. Also..this is important…A really good pinot noir is an incredibly **** tasting wine. Have yourself a great evening.

    Try a Cabernet. Australia is coming into the wine market strong.

    My favorites are Trefethen and Plumpjack Cabernets. You really can’t go wrong with either of those.

    II don’t know much about whites, but for red, I’d try a cabernet, merlot can be too strong if you aren’t used to it. A couple good ones for under $25 – Sterling Cabernet (not the Vinter’s Collection), Beaulieu Vineyards (I’m spelling it wrong but commonly called BV) is good, Fezter and Kendall Jackson make a nice cab too. La Crema and Laticia make a really good Pinor Noir – and light enough for most cab lovers. The more expensive the better, don’t be fooled by words like “Vinter’s Collection”.

    Try Orogeny!! It’s a great Pinot Noir.
