2010 was an interesting year. I unfortunately didn't find myself drinking a lot of budget wines. That is all about to change. This year I commit to returning to my roots- regular consumption of inexpensive bottles of wine. Stay posted, as 2011 should bring some great recession busting options.
In the meantime, splurge a little this new year and give one of my favorites a try- Columbia Crest Horse Heaven Hills (H3) Cabernet Sauvignon. It's a super rich and bold red wine that rivals bottles 2 to 3 times the price. I just bought a bottle yesterday at Safeway grocery for $13. Yes, it's more than $10, but you'll be happy you spent the extra little bit. For more info on the wine, here's a link to the wine info on the company's site.
If you're having people over tonight or anytime soon, I would grab a bottle or two of H3. So very worth it and your guests will surely be impressed.
Happy new year everyone!
Dorian (Budget Vino)




Which red from H3 do you recommend? Your post didn't specify and I see they have 3 reds.
