Im not in Budapest and i see so many different types of wine in supermarkets. Wines from France, California, Hungarian, etc and all at different prices.
If I need a good quality smooth red wine at a reasonable price how do i pick that?|||You do realize that not being in Budapest is a very vague location, right?
California wines from 2005-2006 should work for your needs. Not expensive, but not harsh either. If you haven't drank wine before, I would suggest you start with a white (anything excepted white zinfandel, not really a wine in my book). Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio are all good choices. Rieseling is lighter in alcohol so if you are not used to drinking at all, this would be a good one to start with. (Chardonnay should be 2nd lowest in alcohol).
For reds, look to Pinot Noir. It's my favorite, pretty smooth as far as red wines go. (All wines are in the 3.0-4.0 pH range which makes them pretty acidic).|||Stick with California. Most wines produced in Europe are for mass consumption. Plus, its bad for the planet to ship wine overseas.
California is one of the few places on earth that can grow Pinot Noir grapes well. You usually cannot go wrong with the following california varietals: Pinot Noir, Rieslings, Syrah, Cab Franc, and Cabernet Sov. I wouldn't recommend a California Chardonnay due to all the secondary malolactic fermentation as a result of oak aging. Too manipulated a berry.|||I enjoy wine, but I'm no expert when it comes to picking one out. I would choose something from California. Where I live you can't buy it in a supermarket, but go to a Wine %26amp; Spirits store. If you tell a clerk what you want to serve it with they will offer suggestions|||Try to find dolce in your supermarket (means sweet). Usually Italian wine is always good. Another wine you might try is Kadarka (Macedonian) is also very good.|||eeny, meeny, miney, moe......|||Ask someone who works at a liquor store. They would know.
