Being Frugal in back in fashion Now!

Real Estate Agent with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties 01238708

Being Frugal is back in fashion, I was reading a couple of weeks ago in the LA Times Business Section. This made me think, not too long ago I used to enjoy Non Vintage Krug Champaign at a silvery price.

 Now in today's frugal times I thought I share some of my favorite wines under $15 dollars instead. Oh the good old days of Chateau Margoux Margoux, Where are they now?

 As you know trying to find a good Pinot Noir under $15 is very hard to do, So let me pass on to you a  couple great ones :

 Castle Rock Mendocino Pinot Noir under $10 at Trader Joe's it goes well with just about anything.

 Block No.45 Pinot Noir found at Whole Foods also under $10

 If you prefer a light white vs. a light red then visit the New Zeeland section of Ralph's

 The Nobilo Sauvignon Blanc from the Marlborough region under $12

If you know of others you might want to share here.

Endre,

I love my wines and I also like being frugal. I've gone to many Blind Wine Tastings, where the cheaper wines won over the more expensive wines....So thank you for the recommendation. I think I'll pick up a bottle or two and give you my feeedback.  Happy New Year!

I do not know why,  but I do not have my favorite wine yet.

I would mostly go with Cabernet or a Shiraz. Lately they had to be from California.  It looks that I am experimenting continents, regions ..

Since  Trader Joe's is around the corner I will try  Castle Rock Mendocino Pinot Noir  ;)  and hope that I can suggest one soon.

Happy New Year!

Haris, the more Short Sale Transaction you will be involved the better your wine selection suggestion will be:))
