I'm not a wine buff by any means but I do like a bottle every couple of weeks when I'm fed up with beer.

 

Up to now I've been on a tight budget so the only wines I have been buying are the cheapest non fruit wines, the Vineyard brand sold at Lotus only for around 389 Baht. Red and White, Cabernet, Shiraz and Merlot, Chardonnay and I think Sauvignon Blanc before but my local one only stocks the Chardonnay now.

Now I don't need wine snobs to tell me it's p*ss and only good for cooking, as I've explained I've been on a budget.

 

Now I have more regular disposable income and I would like to buy better wines, red and white, let's say 500-700 Baht, what brands would you recommend please?

Had a Shiraz at the Four Seasons recently Thai wine from Monsoon that was within your price range when I checked.

At Lotus I found Eaglehawk @399B better then those higher priced.

At Makro I like Laughing Bird 1.5L .

 

 

That's not quality, just to wash down some food.

I'm guessing you stick to Leo and have never looked at "craft beer" prices in Thailand.

 

Wrong again. You buy craft beers for 70 baht? Troll.

I buy the 3l box wines, all OK, at Lotus and Big C. Can never remember the name though.

Monte Claire box is my “house wine” a few bottles of “Eaglehawk” put back for company.

The old saying goes "Wine before beer and you'll feel queer, but beer before wine and you'll feel fine."

I think I used up my lifetime beer allotment in college. My Maternal Grandparents were “winos” but, having gone to college, I am an “oenophilist”. Ha! The red wine is heart medicine.

Boone's Farm Tickle Pink. Swig it straight from the bottle. No need for those snobby wine glasses.

Cold Duck and Thunderbird came to mind reading Boone’s Farm … once got very sick on Mogán David (parents mixed with Ginger Ale at holiday).

Sorry to piss on your wine thread, gusy. 

 

 

You are not pissing on the wine thread.

Only making your shortcomings public...
