Wow, several Borsao references here. I'll add another, the "regular"
Borsao has been a perennial favorite in our house,. it used to be
close to $4 - now more like $7.

I've enjoyed several vintages of both the Quinta da Cabriz from
Portugal and the Iche "Les Heretiques" VdP d'Herault for around $6.

A recent find was the 2005 Dario D'Angelo Trebbiano d' Abruzzo at $6,
but sold out when I checked back at Chambers St.

I'm leaving off some very good $2 Cotes du Rhones, etc from the early
90s- inflation has really struck in wineworld.
