I used to only enjoy Beringer's White Zinfandel and Riunite Lambrusco (esp. since I was in college and those wines were cheap!), but then I went to a wine tasting and learned that the white zins are the red-headed step-child of the wine industry.

I'm not a fan of chardonnay, and Mr. AXiD670 doesn't like reds b/c they're served at room temp (although he does like the Lambrusco since it's served chilled), so we've been trying Rieslings lately.

In our fridge now we have Biltmore Estate's American Riesling and Biltmore Estate's "Gold Label" (Chateau Reserve) Riesling (of which I'm enjoying a glass right now ).

At dinner tonight, I had a glass of the Robert Mondavi Private Selection Riesling, and I think it was my favorite thus far.

I've had the Kendall Jackson Riesling and I did NOT like it. I would like to try the Beringer Riesling since I've been a fan of their wine in the past.

What kind of wines do you enjoy?
I'm good at wine - if you like those Reislings, my suggestions in that price range would be Chateau Ste Michelle's Reisling and Bonny Doone Pacific Rim Dry Reisling. Both fantastic and about $10/bottle.
