I don’t ever hear it, and it maintains temp better. I’ve got a 32 bottle Avanti and a 54 bottle Stainless cooler I stumbled across at Costco for $400. I’m building a cellar, but until it’s done, the wine that I want to keep goes in the coolers. Some not so good, and many very good wines. Geer Wade finds small wineries and sells there wines through the internet. I’ve also bought a few cases of Hamilton Estate through. The Cuvee is one that I listed above as one of my all time favorites. I like all of the Marietta wines actually. Definitely the best red I’ve found under $15. It’s a very nice, medium bodied red that goes with everything from spaghetti to creamy chicken dishes.
I buy a case of 12, and pay around $8 per bottle that way. My latest “keep around the house for dinner” red is the Marietta, Old Vine Red. I've tried the Beringer Stone Cellar chardonnay but compared to the more refined Founders Estate Series, it just isn't worth the price.ĭoes anyone here own a wine cooler of particular brand name? Danby, Eurocave, Vinotheque? We have yet to find a Cdn chardonnay that we like. The bottles at least one year old are fine but anything from the previous year is a bit too bubbly. It is nice, light but can be a bit young depending on the year that you can find. Our 'house' white has been the Lindemans Bin65 Chardonnay (at about $10 a bottle) but in comparison to some other recent whites just $2 more, i'm not sure we are going to stay with this one. Not too pricey but refined enough for its price. Its price is around $12 Cdn and seems to have the character of a worthwhile wine for a wide array of occasions. So far the only one that comes to my head that has been a constant for us to bring out is the Robert Mondavi Woodbridge Cabernet Savs. That particular brand and grape they would buy 6 bottles of to keep for company and every other weekend which is not overly pricey but an all around good buy? Does anyone have a favorite house red they tend to drink?Į.g.
