Nonsense. You can get decent white and red for $15-20.


I would spend more for red. As I said. Not many good Cabs for $17.


Who drinks Cab?

I never spend more than $18ish on any bottle. My restauranteur friends say there's rarely reason to.

Forgive me, I don’t drink.

Go to a wine store and ask for recommendations within your budget.

Yellow tail used to be okay a decade ago, but one year it went downhill and unfortunately has stayed there since. I would choose another wine, sorry

Also gross. Safeway had it for $10 last week.

NP. My recommendation is to buy an Oregon wine. Not too expensive and they are pretty much all good.

This is the real issue with cheaper wines. Honestly the Costco brand wines are pretty good and cheap and don't give you a headache. https://www.fool.com/the-ascent/personal-finance/articles/are-costcos-kirkland-wines-any-good/

Or if you go to Total Wine and More, they have plenty of cheap options from unfamiliar brands, so your guests won't know what you paid.

If you serve it and they like it. No problem. If you serve it and they don’t like it, they will bring what they like next time. Problem solved.

If you have time, use it for sangria!

Just get something equally inexpensive with a “quirky” label and people will drink it.

OP never said what kind of wine they like and it depends on what type of food they are serving. Your "friends" should know that. Some of us prefer nice wines and know a thing or two about wine.

If we are talking about Pinot Grigio… I can serve it to my nieces who are 32 and under.

I would not serve it to my family who are over 40.

But I can serve Kris, Santa margarita, and Voga all are extremely inexpensive.

+1 on the headaches. Hangovers are for college not parents who have to wake up the next morning

100% correct.

YellowTail is absolute garbage. (I think that some rehab clinics serve this brand to recovering alcoholics to make sure that they never drink wine again. Yes, it really is that bad.)

The best low cost wines tend to be from Chile & Argentina.

Pinot Noir--a type of grape that is used to make read wine--is an easy to drink variety of wine.

Continuing: Kendall Jackson Vintage Reserve Chardonnay is very good. About $15 per bottle.

I suggest buying two different types and brands of wine.
