Good or Great years for wine???

[eduardozertuche]

Thank you very much for your answers. This gives me some ideas of what to look for.

You know, I have a very hard time buying wine, since I always forget which ones I liked. For instance, the other day I picked up a bottle of Riunite Lambrusco and found it too fruity and sweet for my taste. So I play it safe and go for Cavernet-Sauvignon or Chardonnay, most of the time chilean.

I like older, stronger-tasting wines, specially reds, to go with strong cheese or a good pot of cheese fondue. Any ideas or hints on what kinds of wine, or regions, or vintages should I look for?
