I said in episode 604 that if you wanted my other 6 suggestions, I would do a follow up show! You told me this is what you wanted, so this time I give you six MORE wine regions that make very expensive wines and then provide ideas of less expensive bottles that you could sub in when you don't want to splurge. From Châteauneuf to Brunello I give you some ideas that hopefully you hadn't considered!
The wines I find alternatives for (you'll have to listen to hear the wines I recommend as "dupes"):
- Châteauneuf-du-Pape
- Grosses Gewachs Riesling (I tell you what it is 🤣)
- Hermitage (Northern Rhône Syrah AOC)
- Condrieu (Northern Rhône Viognier AOC)
- Brunello di Montalcino
- Margaux (Bordeaux)
Enjoy it! And go to Grapes the Wine Company to shop for all of these!

CHECK OUT MY NEW SPONSOR!!!
This show is brought to you by my NEW exclusive sponsor, Grapes the Wine Company – an actual brick and mortar store located in White Plains, New York that has been recognized by the Wall Street Journal as one of the most influential wine retailers in America. It is a store owned by my friend Daniel Posner, who has been on the show! When I was looking for a new sponsor, I wanted a small retailer who had the flexibility, contacts, and know-how to get us the wines that we really want. I'm so thrilled that Daniel is now a part of our Wine For Normal People community and I hope you will support him by going to https://www.grapesthewineco.com/
