I wanted to buy myself and my boyfriend a nice wine for our anniversary (which happens during his fraternity formal). I know NOTHING about the subject. Any ideas? Any wines that taste good and fairly inexpensive???
Thanks!

Usually you buy a wine that goes with the meal. I'm assuming that since it's his formal, it wouldn't be too much of a problem finding out what the meal is (red meat, etc.). There are a lot of good wines even below $20 and most people wouldn't be able to tell the difference unless they drink wine a lot.
Since wines get rated by so many different sources, I recommend going to a wine or liquor store to look around. Usually they have the ratings above each bottle. And remember to pick something that accentuates the meal and doesn't clash with it.
