need a red wine

[winoweenie]

Hi Christinearific and welcome to the board. If your friend is as knowledgeable as you indicate try finding a nice Meritage from the 99 vintage. Ones to look for are Beaulieu Vineyards " Tapestry Reserve", Raymond " Generations :, Cain Five, or Flora Springs " Trilogy ". Since you put no parameters on cost for your info all of these are in the 30 to 50 dollar range and would please most every grump on this or any other board. WW
