Christmas Gift Help: Wine


TarPanther9180

Recommended Posts

Okay, I am going to my girlfriend's family for Christmas dinner, Christmas night. I want to pick up a bottle of wine to give her folks. However, I do not drink wine and don't have an idea what I'm looking at when I go to Harris Teeter, Total Wine, or where ever you go to buy wine. The only useless info I got from the woman was that "any kind will work". I don't want to get some cheap ass crap in a box and I don't want to spend a whole lot either.

So I figured there are some wino's....I mean winosaurs on here that know their stuff and could recommend something. What say you?

Thanks in advance

Perrin and Fils makes a nice bottle of Cote du Rhone that you can pick up for around $8-$10. It's really a good tasting wine for a fair price, and it's not too heavy.

It totally depends on their taste though. I took a bottle of a nice dry Burgandy to a girlfriend's house for Thanksgiving and her mom basically liked Manischewitz with a couple of packets of sugar thrown in, so it was a complete wash.

Safest bet is a drinkable Napa cab.

The ones I could drink now would be ones like:

Simi

Rodney Strong

Heitz

These aren't going to blow anyone away but will go down easy and match with most foods. And all the recent years have been good for wine.

If you go french go with Rhone (good drinkable cheap) and avoid Burgundy and bordeaux unless you have a couple xtra bucks.

Spanish Garnache's and Rioja's are usually well priced as well for the good stuff, but it really, really depends on the person.

I'd get a $10 bottle of red and a $10 bottle of white unless you know their taste.

That's kind of what I'm thinking. I may get two different kinds, just in case. I'm hoping to get more intel from her sister on what they like.

Stop trying to impress them, or you'll set yourself up to have to live up to some lofty expectations...

Me personally, I would show up in a hoodie and sweatpants, and possibly a pair of Crocs w/socks... If you want to do it more classy, wear a velour suit and sneakers, and possibly a day or two worth of facial hair stubble...
