For a real full-bodied red, try Greg Norman Estates Shiraz (might be a bit more than $20).
Also Marques de Caceres Rioja (I'm a big Rioja fan) |

No preferences. Boss at work just gave me an unexpected X-Mas gift, I know she likes wine, so would like to pick something up.

Sparkling wine is always great for gifts. Find a bottle of Schramsberg Mirabelle, should be just under $20. (Most decent wine stores should have it.) Pick up a bottle for yourself as well.
Schramsberg is America's oldest and best sparkling wine (champagne) producer, you and your boss will be pleasently surprised at how good the "cheap" champagne is, and how much better it is than the even cheaper stuff. (Although I find Korbel Brut pretty decent for the price.) If you can't find the Schramsberg, then go for Chandon California Brut or Rose. Both are great for around $16, and you can find it in many supermarkets. Chandon is my favorite California sparkling wine that's easily obtainable. Great for serving with dinner on occasion. |

Who/What is it for? A date? A present? Does the person know wine?
For a really light red that most anyone can drink go with a Beaujolais and serve it slightly chilled. Also any Merlot or Chianti will go well with a nice dinner and most people find it drinkable. Avoid Cabernets and Pinots with people who don't drink a lot of wine. For white, go with a Riesling. That is, if you must waste your time and money buying/drinking white wine. |
