Any Good Wines You Would Recommend?

I rather like the Italian desert wine "Moscato d'Asti". It's a sweet, sparkling wine that is usually either a white or a rose. I'm not into bitter wines, so I really love it! "Cupcake" makes a good d'Asti, and I believe theirs is actually imported from Italy! It's only like 13 bucks for a bottle and you can find it in any liquor store. 
Italians are famous for their wine among other culinary dishes. There are so many to pick from at different price ranges. You don't have to break the bank to get a good bottle of Italian wine, because they make it for all classes. I think it is because wine is such a big part of the culture. Where you buy from depends on where you live. Any wine shop or even a local grocery store in the States will have a bottle of Italian Wine. My favorite is a semi-sweet Moscato d'Asti.
Some fair priced ones are Momento Di Vino and Apassionato. Check out this article on Italy's top 25 wines under $25. It's great for picking out some wines.

I am a big fan of Chianti (red wine). There are a lot of different brands and price points for this wine but overall it is one of my favorites! I personally like the Ruffino brand. It can get a little pricy at $20 a bottle but it is definitely a good glass of red wine. It goes great with a nice steak or pasta and sauce. I wouldn’t go too cheap with buying Chianti because I’ve tried a few no name brands that let me with a splitting headache. It didn’t taste that good either.
I'm also not really a fan of wine, but every now and again I like to have a glass with a meal, especially if we're eating out in a restaurant.
Proseco seems to have become quite popular recently here in the UK also, and it seems that in the past couple of years especially, people have been preferring that for a social drink more than a lot of others.
