Delicious (and affordable) Wines Under 10 Dollars

Great Wine Picks Rated 90 Points and Over for $10 or Under*

Santa Ema 2007 Reserve Merlot - Deep violent color with the aroma of plums, blackberries, figs, and currants. Intense notes of vanilla, caramel, and chocolate - yum!

Bodegas Lan Rioja Crianza 2006 - An aroma of crushed rose petals with bright cherry flavors. Pairs well with olives and meats, especially duck.

ViƱa Falernia Syrah Reserva 2006 - Has a nose of blueberry and smoke, medium-bodied with layers of spicy fruit.

Monte Antico Toscana 2006 - 75% Sangiovese from 25 year old vines loaded with plums and berries.
DR Loosen Riesling 2009 - This is one of my favorites, delicious flavors of apricot, mango, and lime. Creamy with a slight tang. Pairs well with Asian dishes and light appetizers.


*I found all of these in various New Jersey wine stores such as Wegman's for $10 or less. Prices may vary near you - or you can follow the links to buy each for around what I paid!
