What could be better than a wine named Valentine for Valentine’s? Well, we’ll get to that in a second, but these wines from Valentine Vineyards, a small winery in Southern Mendocino County, would certainly add some thoughtful pizzazz to a V-Day celebration.

How about Passion, from Icicle Ridge Winery in Washington state? Cherry wine with chocolate... hard to go wrong with that! Also, Beaujolais should typically be consumed right away, not left to age. Have you tried that 2009 lately? It may still have life in it but hard to say.

@chitownwineguy A solid Pinot Noir from Oregon, such as Argyle, would be nice and not break the bank...Assuming all of your $$$ was spent on dinner/a gift/etc...etc...

Love and Meritage would work as well.

Finca Antigua Merlot 2006. Just hard to find unless you order a case, at least in Canada. On the other hand, it settles what to drink on the 14th of Feb. until the year 2023...

A Moscato d' asti is always a great choice for a celebration. You can even get a pink one that is perfect for Valentine's Day!
