My Dad grew up in Southern California.
He always has wine kicking around. My parents don't drink. Ernst & Julio is best out of Cali. Dom is... well... Dom.... Last year my friend Alysse (sic?) had a homemade blackberry wine that was outright sublime. Homebrew = +

I know very little about wine. A couple questions:
1) Whats a good price range to aim at for a decent bottle of wine? I usually find that when I spend a bit more it's usually worth it. (ie $20 as opposed to $10 will be a much better wine). 2) How much does the originating country really account for? I just bought a bottle from France for the first time... i think this is the best bottle of wine i've ever had in my life.

for casual drinking, the wines in the 9-13 range are fine. for a nice dinner $15 and up... and for a gift, $20+
the originating country and date can be used to know how good the harvest was that year. I heard Bordeau 2001 was a fantastic year in France and those bottles are disapearing fast. Definetly good to collect those if you're into that. British Columbia 2004 is also a hot year
