Because I am no sommelier (am I even fancy enough to use that word?), I used Wine Spectator's scoring to determine which affordable wines on Amazon are actually the best.
Wine Spectator is an award-winning magazine that ranks wine on a 100-point scale.
1. A 2013 cabernet sauvignon with tasting notes of black cherry, blackberry, and licorice.
2. A crisp brut sparkling wine that's most notably green apple and citrus.
3. A 2014 chardonnay in a refreshing blend of pear, apple, and hints of tropical fruits.
4. A 2015 cabernet sauvignon for those who prefer a darker taste of black cherry, cassis, and blackberry.
5. A 2015 pinot gris for a palate of white peach, ginger, and dried fig.
6. A sweet sparkling wine comprised of green apple, lemon, and grapefruit.
7. A 2015 sauvignon blanc in fresh, tropical fruit flavors of papaya and mango, plus some hints of gooseberry.
8. A 2012 cabernet sauvignon of dark black fruits that can either be aged or enjoyed immediately.
9. A 2013 pinot noir with ripe black cherry, dusty cocoa, and raspberry.
10. A 2015 sauvignon blanc if you're looking for a summer flavor of gooseberry and citrus.
11. A 2013 chardonnay for an acidic finish of white peach and pear.
12. A 2012 merlot with the velvety effect of ripe cherry and blackberry.
13. A 2013 cabernet sauvignon that shows flavors of coffee, currant, and spice.
14. A 2015 viognier marsanne if you're in the mood for a sweet and silky texture of nectarine and peach.
15. A set of six Barefoot wines, including a chardonnay, moscato, pinot grigio, pinot noir, cabernet, and "rich red blend."
16. A 2014 chardonnay in sweet flavors of pineapple juice and fresh pear.
17. A 2005 syrah that boasts smoky cherry and wild plum aromas, and a touch of dried lavender.
18. A collection of Californian merlot, pinot noir, sauvignon blanc, brut champagne, chardonnay, and cabernet sauvignon.
19. A full-bodied 2014 cabernet sauvignon with ripe, dark fruit flavors of blackberry and notes of toasty oak and cocoa.
20. A 2014 sauvignon blanc that's full of grapefruit, passion fruit, and lime.
Let the sweats and wine marathon begin and never end.
