Santa Margaretta Pinot Grigio -- it's a nice crisp white, that's wonderful with spicey foods -- especially in the summer.

For a lighter white, I also like Sauvignon Blanc - CLos du Bois is one of my faves.

Marques de Riscal a really nice Rioja out of Spain -great with Seafood, or when dining at some of my local Portugese/Spanish restaurants.

I'm not a fan of Cabernets at all, they're a little too heavy, I do like Shiraz's and Pinot Noirs when it comes to reds... I've gotten some great wines from Chili, Argentina, and Australia that are unbelievably good and unbelievably cheap.
