Does anyone have a good wine recommendations?

I'm planning on getting a bottle as a wedding gift, but I just don't know what to choose.

I'm thinking red, but I'm really open to anything. Preferably in the under $20 range (we don't like them THAT well :p )

Hehe, we tend to drink very inexpensive wine, but I have a couple of ideas.

I like Llano Estacado, both the merlot and the signature red.

And Penfolds shiraz. And Rosemount shiraz

All those are in the price ranges you're thinking.

I would also recommend picking up a copy of Cooking Light; there are wine recommendations in every issue.

we drink pretty inexpensive stuff too. And we have a favorite, but I don't know that it really suits everyone's taste.

For a gift, should I go with a red or a white (or blush even)? Which do you think would appeal to a larger majority?


and....since it's a wedding gift, should we go with a 2007 wine (wedding year), or should we just get something that's aged a little more?

I would go with a red or a blush. I think that purchasing a 2007 would be nice since they are getting married this year. They might want to keep the bottle til next year or something.

If you have a store called BevMo which is a nice liquor store they are very friendly and can help you with your selection.
