Another Malbec fan here.
And Pinot Noir. Especially from Wilamette Valley. Mmmmm. We had some 2007's that were great. but pricey, so they are "special occasion" wines for the most part. Got a few cases of Kudos that were reasonable and quite good.

I also like some of the sparkling whites ("champagne") from Westport River Vineyards and Sakonnet Vineyards, which are in SE MA/RI. We usually do a ride there and then on the way home, in the car, stop and buy our supply for the year!

Talking about Chilean wine, I have to find these again:
- Montes Purple Angel 2005
- Montes Folly 2005
I picked a couple of bottles during my last visit to Santiago and then had to buy half a case of the Purple Angel. So delightful!

Yes! to the Wilamette Valley Pinot Noir - though I live here, so I'm a bit partial.

I've never tried a Malbec, but maybe I should if you like both wines.
For whites, I like cheap Pinot Grigio's. I find the expensive ones are usually too strong tasting and if I want white, I want crisp and refreshing. I always pick the cheapest ones I can find and I'm usually not disappointed!My new non-farm blog: Finding Freedom

I'm lazy. I let my daughter buy the wine. She has the knowledge and has never let us down yet. (Now I know what that expensive Ivy League education was good for!

I really like the Texas wines because they pair with the types of food we eat. I am big Cab or Cab Blend fan. Like some sweet wines, some not too dry whites. Okay I just like wine!
My favorite though is a bottle I bought in New Mexico, La Chiripada Winery's Canoncito. It is not overwhelmingly sweet but doesn't need to be paired.Amanda
