A novice wine-lover who's ready to make the leap to more sophisticated wines, you’re broadening your palate by ordering wines by the glass.
No matter what all the highfalutin' wine snobs say, you aren’t afraid to admit that there is a time and a place to buy Two-Buck Chuck by the case.
*Though you definitely enjoy a fine glass of vino, there are certain times when a microbrew beer hits the spot.
The bistro sommelier has just poured a glass of vino. You immediately toss your head back and take a big gulp. Bottoms up!
The screwtop has led you to consider giving up boxed wine.
Leftover wine is never a problem when you order by the glass.
Your wine drinking motto: There's more than just red and white?
A wine selection for a night in with someone special usually comes down to whatever's on sale.
"By-the-glass" enthusiasts love their wine...but they're rarely willing to pay a lot for it! When seeking out wines under $10 a bottle, one of the best choices is Bogle Vineyards.
Among Bogle selections, trusty favorites for bargain-hunters include: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and, especially, the Chenin Blanc (California, of course).
When splurging, cost-conscious wine shoppers will find nice rewards in Bogle's Petite Sirah, Cabernet, and Old Vin Zinfandel. These wines are pleasing and the label says nothing about the price—it's all class.
Other fitting picks for this group include:
- Rosenblum Vintners Cuvee XXVIII Zinfandel
- 2005 Kim Crawford Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
- Domaine Chandon Brut
