I totally agree with your first 2 picks.

Sadly, I am almost out of the 2000 Vitiano. I got it for $8 and it is far better than the subsequent wines, although they are good values anyway.

The Marquis Philips '03s are now in CA and making their way across the US. I tried the Shiraz and it is on par with the 2001 and much better than the 2002s. I'd buy as much as you can find of these wines.

Borsao (Spain) ($4-5) is another steal that you don't feel guilty about cooking down for a sauce.

Las Rocas (Spain) puts out incredible wines for the money. The 2002s can be found for $8-10 and the 2001 Old Vines for $10-15. Parker rated them both in the low 90s and I don't disagree.

Finally, many people love inexpensvie ports for their power and versatility. Taylor, Fonseca, and Warres all have tawnys for under $14 that are very enjoyable.

We would really like to hear what you have to say
