Bachelor Pad....must have wine list for entertaining (Pinot Noir, bottle, drink)

[usamathman]

Wondering if you all could suggest a few wines that would be good for entertaining lady friends and other guests.


I'm a non drinker.


Don't want to spend more than $20 for a bottle.


Any suggestions would be fantastic.

If your goal is to entertain sophisticated, intelligent women, here's a good place to start:
90+ Rated Under $20

Hopefully you cook so you can use the leftovers. Wine won't keep more than a couple days once opened.

For a red:

Le Crema Pinot Noir

It is velvety, popular, and everywhere will carry it.

I'll have to try that. After drinking only whites for many years, I'm starting to branch out into reds. So far I've found some blends I like, Cupcake Red Velvet, and Apothic Red.
