If you want to learn how to be a true connoisseur of wine and the enjoyment it brings along, then you should take lessons from John in the book Shanghai Sun: The Curse Of  The General. John is the main character in this book and enjoys things such as coffee and good wine in the most wonderful way possible. He admires the authentic taste and the aroma of everything that is presented in front of him. This book is also a great way to spend time while you’re out enjoying a good glass of wine.

List below are some of the most affordable wines

Domaine Marcel Lapierre Raisins Gaulois

There are no better inexpensive wines than Lapierre’s “Raisins Gaulois,” in my opinion. This bottle was made by one of the most prestigious winemaking families in Beaujolais. This wine is organic, well-made, and incredibly simple to consume. It has flavors of tart cherry, juicy red fruit, and white pepper. Serve charcuterie, cheese, Taco Tuesday favorites, and other foods with a slight chill. It’s impossible to go wrong with this bottle.

Ginger’s Cuvée Pinot Noir

Bacchus produces top-notch, moderately priced bottles from vineyard locations all across California. It was founded by David Gordon, the wine director at Tribeca Restaurant in New York. The vibrant and revitalizing palate of this wine is dominated by flavors of candied red fruit, cedar spice, and potting soil. Drink with portobello mushroom burgers, grilled salmon, or roast chicken.

Triennes Rosé

The French area of Provence is well known for its sun-drenched days, lavender-filled fields, and sandy beaches. It is also well known for its rosé wine production. All Provencal pinks, however, are not made equal. Choosing an excellent producer is always important when looking for inexpensive wine, and rosé is no exception.

Two of Burgundy’s most skilled vignerons, or winemakers, Aubert de Villaine and Jeremy Seysses, formed a partnership to create Triennes. This bottle is made with fruit that has been grown organically and is flavored with sour strawberries, cream, and citrus zest. For a trip to warm, southern Provence, serve chilled with French-inspired nibbles.

Elena Walch Pinot Grigio

The majority of pinot grigios are thin, mass-produced, and flavorless; nevertheless, we can assure you that once you take a sip of Elena Walch’s bottle, all of these characteristics are instantly forgotten. The 60 hectares of Alto Adige-based grapes that Elena Walch now oversees, with the help of her daughters Karoline and Julia, are all sustainably grown, with the environment being prioritized. The wine was totally vinified in stainless steel tanks, yet a brief amount of sur-lie aging gives the light-bodied mouthfeel of the wine a pleasing texture. The notes of salted pears, white pepper, citrus, and freshly chopped herbs may be tasted in this vibrant and spicy Pinot Grigio. Combine this delicious drink with a variety of fresh hors d’oeuvres, or simply enjoy it by itself.
