Woo hoo! I'm thrilled to announce my contribution to this month's issue of Maxim, that venerable publication of scantily clad pretty young things and useful man tips on everything from screws to booze. Cue moi - I selected the wines and did much of the writing for the "Quaff On the Cheap!" piece in the Expert section of the March issue. I chose my fav five widely-available inexpensive reds, which they photographed for the very cool piece, and wrote up my thoughts on why they'll appeal to the mag's readers. Read on for the list of wines and a link to check it out! ;)
My picks for Maxim:
Marques de Caceres Crianza Rioja $12
Bogle Vineyards Old Vine Zinfandel $11
Penfolds Koonunga Hills Shiraz-Cab $9
Casa Lapostolle Rapel Valley Merlot $13
Alamos Mendoza Malbec $11
