Suggested pairing: my gosh any bottle mentioned in this episode MRQ is just CONVINCED that the only people who listen to this podcast are broke 21-year-olds and thinks he needs to provide them with $15 gems so they have the chance to "ball on a budget." (aka drink good wine at an affordable price) The jury is out on whether or not his assesment is correct, but regardless, who is going to turn down a good value? This episode is FANTASTIC and is filled with top notch wines at prices even freelance writers (MJQs profession, fyi) can afford.  If you like this episode, please let us know by LEAVING A REVIEW on itunes and perhaps we will include a "wine hack of the week" in every episode.
