I've liked everything Meridien and Seaview (Australia) does in reds in that price range.....Ravenswood Zin ain't bad either and can be had for $100/case

I thought so....they had a tasting at Wegman's this morning and I thought they were pretty good.....I didn't expect much from NY wines (my lack of sophistication maybe) but liked everything they had - the whites (Riesling, Chardonnay) were best...and the Rielsing is rated well. What do other think of these wines?....I sometimes get "caught in the moment" at a tasting and later don't think as much of a wine......we'll see...I bought a few bottles.

New to the forum...First post to the Spirits board. Having been a beer and wine drinker for many years, I now find myself with the occasional urge for a cocktail on the deck. That said, I only have a few odd partial bottles of liquor left randomly by friends and family over the years. I want to create a basic accumulation of liquor for the occasional urge and for guests who drink. What at a minimum, should I have on hand?. More specifically, if one is to have just one bottle of each type of liquor, what brands are suitable for all-around libation? Mixers?...Types? Brands? I realize there is plenty of personal preference here and I'll have to develop that as time goes by, but in the meantime, I'd love some thoughts from those on the board and read their preferences. While I'm at, I'm also in search of great a Bloody Mary recipe - Have had some great ones at bars (had one with clam juice once that was killer) but have rarely mixed them at home. Thanks in advance, Joe
