Appetizers tomorrow going to roll with buffalo chicken dip and a pickle and cheese plate made up of 14 year old white cheddar, spring gouda , green onion cheese, home made bread and butter pickles / peppers. Main course is going to be 1 1/2" thick ribeyes grilled on the Kamodo along with some roasted zuchinni. Going to finish that off with some homemade pumpkin pie soft serve ice cream. Damn now I am hungry

Drinking enough wine will eventually kill your liver, though not as fast as high octane booze will.

There's nothing wrong with those "wine in a box" offerings if you're on a budget- and they're actually good values. I've tried Black Box, and their cabernet and merlot are decent for the price. Underwood red wines in a can is pretty decent too. Only other wine in a box I've tried is Rex Goliath, which I found to be passable. Stay away from the Man Can wine they're selling at the stadium though, drinkable if you want to get a buzz on, but not much else. Just don't try going through all 3 liters of the economy sizes in one night. I've seen their 500 ml mini boxes that retail for around $4- you can try to see if you like them.
If you want a red wine that's actually in a bottle, the Spanish Vega Sindoa $8 is ok. I'm partial to the Cheap Ravenswood zinfandels (the former owner winemaker Joel Peterson used to be a Medical Technologist before he started making wine- like me). Cline old vine zinfandels (some of my everyday house swill) can be had for $10. If you want to move up in price point- the Robert Mondavi Bourbon Barrel Cabernet Sauvignons and Chardonnays ($12) are wines I would recommend for someone just starting out in wine.
That's the deal- unless you've got a $100k+ income, you're not pulling out expensive wines to drink every night just for the hell of it. There's lakes of wines in the $10 range to try- and really- that's how you'll learn how decide what you like, And if you like them- no reason to buy more expensive. The absolute best way to find out what you like (and I don't know where you live) is start going to wine tastings that stores offer. Here in Dayton there's at least a dozen every week starting Wednesday and running through Saturday. In Ohio- they have to at least charge for a taste what the bottle would cost at retail. (no free samples) We have one high end store here, so here's the math. We'll let you taste this $100 bottle of wine. That's 24 ounces- so a two once pour will cost you $8 bucks to try it. LOL, less than what they charge you at First energy for a Great Lakes beer. That isn't the case in other states. Kentucky and Texas (was there last year for the Texans game) allow you small tastes of stuff for free. I had a fun time in Houston at Total Wine, I've never seen the inside of a wine store I didn't like.
Now I'll admit- when I head over to Bob's for the Saints game tomorrow, I'm pulling out something a tad more expensive. Found a very nice California Raeburn Pinot Noir $25 (the grape of red burgundy) at the tasting this afternoon, and a wine that I bought a ton of- Napa Cellars "V" Cabernet $27.

I like white wine better than red. What type of 'cheap' chardonay do you recommend?

The Australian variety. Lindemans Bin 65 is a great value, and Yellow Tail. California flavors are Fetzer, Berenger, and Sutter Home. Don't be afraid to try some of the cheaper German (or Oregon\ Washington state) Rieslings either. They can be off dry to slightly sweet, and I like them a lot.

If you look at German Rieslings look for these words on the label : Kabinett (least sweet one), Spatlese (medium sweet one), and Auslese (the most sweet).
If you want a sweet Italian wine look for a Moscato. All of these range from around $9-12 per bottle. Much more for higher rated ones.

Aha, then look for some cheap Sangria from Spain. Nero can confirm that you will love that if you like Lambrusco.?
My wife has a bottle of Madria Sangria downstairs, for cooking and drinking, available anywhere.

Oh total coincidence but today's GAMEDAY MEAL were having Penne Rigate pasta with chopped mushrooms in the sauce and Abruzzi's Italian meatballs......ummmm, wife can throw together a meal. Italian bread and some Ruinite Lambrusco for me. It really smells good in here!
GEAUX BROWNS!

Abruzzi's? Good choice on the penne, that's my go-to pasta.
What's the Italian bakery to go to in the Mahoning Valley?

3230 Belmont Avenue, eat in for lunch.

.....edit add, long, long ago I used to eat at the founders restaurant on the West side of Youngstown, great pizza then. Somewhat different more upscale now.
......edit 2, if the wife doesn't have time to make her scratch meatballs we occasionally have the Abruzzi's meatballs -but- we still doctor meals like fresh mushrooms in the sauce, and the wife grows and dries herbs every year, gives TONS away generally 12-14 varieties. She's good at it!
......edit 3, you always sautee your mushrooms in wine before adding to the sauce. Bon Appétit.
