The reviews at NTUC were not bad. Got this bottle for about $26 and it indeed is bang for the bucks!

This vino tainto (red wine) has a long finish and comes from manteca, california which is quite close to san jose. Though i recall seeing Gnarly Head in the supermarkets in Cali, didn’t know it was actually made that near to where we were staying then. =)

It’s so hard to get good and cheap wines that taste good. Definitely rate this as one of the best value for money bottle wine in SG. Nothing beats 2 US$ chardonnay and cabernet souvignon at trader’s joes!

There seems to be quite a variety of zinfandels (blanco o tainto) but they’re mostly more fruity and a good start for the newbies. =)
