alternative to chianti prices

[jamey]

Hello All,

I'm probably considered a novice wine drinker, although I am beginning to have an affinity for certain varieties. I happen to really enjoy a decent bottle of chianti (light, fluffy & velvety are all adjectives I have used when attempting to describe the taste) but I have found that I enjoy more only those that come with a higher price tag. Can someone offer a winemaker of chianti that is less than say, $25 or are there are other Tuscan wines that are similar but less expensive?
