How can I select a good wine in the supermarket?

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 really can't tell the quality of a wine by looking at the wine labels. Sometimes stores will tell you of a wine's rating. If someone has rated a wine highly, that will indicate that someone likes the wine. However, it really depends on whether or not you have the same taste as that particular rater.





The best way to know if a wine is good is to try it. Take notes and remember the ones that you want to buy again.





These are some red wines that I enjoy drinking:





Mark West 2007 California Pinot Noir


Enjoy rich flavors of strawberries and raspberries and a lush texture. A wonderful Pinot Noir.

Make sure to take a glass and corkscrew.|||If you are talking about table wine why not try Australian wine.|||If you're looking at supermarket budget, try south america: Chile and Argentina





New Zealand have some good whites too.
