Hi, welcome to all wine lovers. Just sharing some of my experiences as part of the consumers of wine in Malaysia.
I prefer wine around the range of RM60 to RM100.
Currently, I would prefer the Errazuric Cab Sauv, 2010, Chile Wine for around rm85 and Banfi Col Di Sasso , 2009, from Italy at over RM100.
This thread is open for everyone to share their point of view as well as their experiences. However there are some questions that i would like to direct to all the readers of this post :

1. What are the price range you would offer for a decent bottle of wine you occasionally drink?
2. For frequent drinkers or wine lovers, would you prefer to enjoy a fine bottle of wine of specific branding or will any wine of any branding be enough to satisfy your craving?
3. If you are new to wine, how much would you pay for your first bottle of wine?

Feel free to share  smile.gif

1. Any price, as long as the wine catches my eye. =D
2. I don't buy the same bottle unless my other half likes it, it's a wide adventure in the world of wine, i always buy a box of 12 all different types, sparkling, rose, red, white, anything!
3. My first bottle of wine is a Rose, since malaysia is so hot, a chilled rose would be great to quench my thirst ! <3

OK, just to update. After upcar & your comment, I stored the wine inside my fridge till Yesterday when I atlast bought a gooding cork opener. Yes liao.. that cork patah & crumbled inside the wine..  sad.gif  cry.gif ...Thereafter me korek wth chopstick & luckily managed to take out that cork. The remaining of the cork pieces..me using filter nia when I pour to the glass  blush.gif

The best... yeah... that 2001 wine..tasted so nice.. much better than those I tasted so far...no kerosene or vinegar smell.. just fruity, dry & not sweet feeling... gooding for sure  rclxms.gif ...So who say keeping for years no good  biggrin.gif ..well except for the cork...

Oh BTW, it;s not french wine.. it's Australian.  blush.gif

Next time if you think the cork is dried and will patah inside, try pushing the cork inside, then use a clean ribbon to pull it out, need to use a bit man power to do so cause will create vacuum.

Refrigerator de air very dry, the cork will definitely dry and crack if kept inside long time, but then not all wine will improve after aging, need to see what type of wine then only can know.

Btw, your conversation with Upcar is very funny, thanks for the laugh. xD
