I personally love a nice glass of wine but being a bit of a tight wad I don’t like to over pay for it. So I was really happy to find a website called 10 Dollar Wine that specializes in reviewing and recommending inexpensive wine. Now at first I was a bit skeptical of the name of this site, I mean “10 Dollar Wine” does not conjure up images of great wines.
Well I held back my skepticism and gave the site a shot, that was a good move. As the name of the site suggests they are all about bottles of wine that cost ten dollars a bottle or less. I actually found they do review some wines that are in the 12-15 dollar range as well.
Each wine is rated on a unique scale that is as follows,
- Highest Recommendation
- Highly Recommended
- Recommended
- Good
- Acceptable
- Not Recommended
You can view the entire explanation of their wine rating system for more information. Each review compares the wine to other similar wines, tells you who would like or dislike it based on other tastes and gives some food paring ideas. To me the most valuable advices it they tell you if they would buy the wine again and if they would keep any in their wine rack.
After reading some reviews I realized I have tried many of these wines and tended to agree with much of what they had to say. I have to say this is a great site for finding and saving money on great low cost wines. I like to enjoy the finer things in life like wines with out paying to much. Now here is the best part this site apart from some advertising is informational only. Most of these wines can be found in grocery stores, wine shops etc. They really aren’t selling anything, just great free advice. Put this one in your book marks and join their mailing list.

I couldn’t agree more … I love good wine … but you won’t see me paying $50+ for a bottle. There are so many great wines you can get for under $20 … and now I’ll know about even more thanks to this site!
Cheers!
