Red or white. Some of the private wine store mark-ups don't help this. I think there are enjoyable whites typically in that $18-$25 range - Thornhaven Gewurtz, Tantalus Riesling, Lake Breeze PB, Wild Goose, Road 13 Chenin. Reds get a little trickier, but it can be done. $39 is pricey for some unproven juice no matter where it's from, but I suppose it just comes down to prestige pricing.

When buying a BC wine untasted, do you think there is a general consumer price tolerance? Does it differ red wine vs white wine? Kurtis, I think you make a good point.
