- Marre - 01-28-2004 I am going to a Super Bowl party and would like to take the hostess a nice bottle of wine....not for the party, but just as a hostess gift for her. Not sure which she prefers but I do know that she is a big pasta eater. So if you could make suggestions for red-white etc and a brand? No higher than $20 to $30? Thanks - sedhed - 01-28-2004 Red or white sauce with the pasta? P.S. Welcome aboard. [This message has been edited by sedhed (edited 01-28-2004).] - Innkeeper - 01-28-2004 Bortoluzzi, Isonzo Del Friuli, Pinot Grigio (white) or Collio Merlot (red). Both wines from this excellent producer in Northeastern Italy are tops in their genre. The white is under $15 and the red is under $20. - hotwine - 01-28-2004 If she's a big pasta fan, get her a nice Barbera d'Alba. Lots to choose from in the price range. - Marre - 01-29-2004 Red sauce. You guys are great - responding so quickly and nicely. I believe this is the most respectful message board I have ever witnessed! Thanks! - Georgie - 01-29-2004 Stick around awhile.....
