\"cellar<\/a> For those looking to stock their wine cellar in the $40-$80 per bottle range, will notice that many of the budget-friendly wines<\/strong><\/a> I recommended also produce premium wines in this category.<\/p>\n

At this level, wines have greater aging potential, usually at least three to five years, and sometimes longer depending on the producer.<\/p>\n

Broaden your search to include California, where wines have increased in price dramatically over the past ten years, even though that’s softening somewhat with the currency exchange.<\/p>\n

The Sunshine State offers great wines in this range, particularly chardonnays and cabernets from Arrowood, Sterling, Frog\u2019s Leap<\/strong><\/a>, Kenwood and RH Philips.<\/p>\n

Also try zinfandel from Cline, Ravenswood, Ridge, Rosenblum and Renwood. Affordable pinot noir from Oregon is worth having on hand: Amity Vineyards<\/strong><\/a>, Eyrie, Domain Drouhin Oregon, Erath and Firesteed.<\/p>\n

Stock up on Italian amarone, brunellos and barolos from Banfi, Antinori, Masi<\/strong><\/a> and Boscaini.<\/p>\n

Tawny and vintage ports from Sandeman<\/strong><\/a>, Warre\u2019s, Dow and Taylor-Fladgate should also be part of your collection.<\/p>\n

Here are the dream wines to buy<\/strong><\/a> when budget is not a concern.<\/p>\n
