I never remember what my favourite red wines are. I have a note saved on my iPhone of 4 wines that have tickled my fancy, but considering how much red wine I drink, that’s not enough. I know I’ve drunk some wonderful red wines, but perhaps I just don’t recall them after a glass or 3. I’ve been to so many wine nights, and I still can’t pick a fav off the top of my head. It might be McGuigans Black label red, but that could be because its all I drank in my early 20’s. I was suave and a real wine connisewer in my early 20’s…
Joking. Really.
I’ve decided to reach out to my Facebook friends to give me suggestions for decent red wines under $20. I might drink a lot, but I’m still on a budget. There are a few whites thrown in for good measure, mustn’t be wineist.
So, if you like a good wine, know its good value, check out my Facebook page and share your palates.
Hubby takes photos of the wine that he likes on his phone to remind himself. It’s hard to keep track of otherwise.

Good idea, Lorraine. You’d think with the amount of photo’s I take of the food I eat, that I’d take a photo of the wine as well. Common sense ain’t that common!

Its a little out of the budget, but Ladies who Shoot their Lunch Shiraz is amazingly delicious and only $26.00. Grant Burge Benchmark Shiraz is pretty great too, I think Ive seen that below $20.00. Angove Chalk Hill Blue Cabernet Merlot is about $22.00. All worthy of spending a few extra quid I reckon. Like Lorraine, I take pics of my fav anythings really, great reference of whats good. Hope you are enjoying your travels.

Thanks, Anna. I’ve started taking photos of all the wines I enjoy, now, so I can remember them. Grant Burge is usually pretty good, my fav Sparkling Shiraz is a Grant Burge. I’ll keep an eye out for your suggestions when I want to splurge 😉 A girls gotta drink good wine every now and again. I tell you what, I’m over cocktails, here in Bali, and am gagging for a nice glass of red. One thing I’m looking forward to when I get home!
