The holy grail baby! Cheap wine, punching way above its weight, absolute value, peak of the QPR mountain.

    Dr. Hermann: Riesling Ürziger Würzgarten Kabinett Alte Reben

  6. FilledChaos

    Esporao Reserva Branco. Accessible, cheap and punches way above its price point!

  7. Deleted_dwarf

    Penfolds Max’s Cabernet Shiraz !

    Cost around €20, drinks like €50+ imo

  8. Neanderthal_Gene

    Beaujolais Cru. Pick a good producer from any of the 10.

  9. skalpelis

    I don’t know if it goes here or should be saved for the “Is mid” column but Villa Antinori

  11. lesmiles248

    Faustino V Rioja. Definitely checks the cheap box. Not a bad wine imo

  12. scoc89

    Saint Cosme Côtes du Rhône. $15-20. 100% Syrah. 100% your friend.

  15. ababab70

    Chateau Buena Vista. Not everyone’s thing but it tastes like cabs twice or triple the price.

    Assuming we are talking price before flips, my winner is Domaine des Tours

  18. Hodmimir

    Jean Marc Burgaud Morgon Cote du Py. Would also throw the Beuajolais Villages in the ring as its cheaper, but not quite as good imo

    Faustino Gran Reserva. Rioja. €25. Newest release is 2016 I think.

    Somewhat niche, but:

    De Bortoli ‘Noble One’ Botrytis Semilion.

    This is c£20 per 375ml and as good as any Sauternes/ other desert wine I’ve ever had. Highly recommended.

  23. Bruschjan

    Faustino I Rioja Gran Reserva! Normally under £20 and is very high quality

  26. neurotichamster8

    La Rioja Alta La Vina Ardanza Rioja Reserva
