Buying a nice bottle of Red Wine for christmas for my Parents. What do i get?
Ok, so for christmas my sister and i are wanting to buy my parents a bottle of dry red wine. Their favorite styles are Cabernet Sauvignon, Red Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, and Syrah. We are trying to keep the price under 30 bucks. Have any suggestions?
Specific brands they enjoy are Mount Veener, Greg Norman, Hahn Estates, and Fess Parker.

Amador County is known for its great Zinfandel. Pick up a bottle of Renwood Zinfandel. Renwood is a small winery with a great reputation for their Zinfandel (and it’s well deserved). You can buy this at Beverages & More or Wine.com.
Another fabulous Zin maker is Macchia out of Lodi. This may be more difficult to buy unless you live near Macchia. Their Oblivous Zinfandel is out of this world…fruity yet peppery at the same time! You can order it from their website. https://checkout.inertiabev.com/macchia/catalog/index.jsp?cat_id=1003
get two bottles of ozzy shiraz or burgundy. Can’t go wrong.
Australian Yellow Label, Red Label, Yellow Tail, or Rosemount.
Cupcake petite syrah. It’s a really nice red and doesn’t cost a whole lot.
Go to your local liquor store and ask the clerk for suggestions..I like the TORRES brand of wines, they are Spanish, but all are excellent tasting. and not expensive
Fat Bastard Shiraz….about $16 bucks…..WELL WORTH IT. Don’t let the name deter you.
I love all of those types of wines you mentioned. Last year, my son bought me a bottle of Bogle Phantom. It was wonderful. It is a blend of several red grapes, including some you mentioned in your question. So, I recommend Bogle Phantom.
