Reccomend me some wine.

I need two bottles of white wine or champagn. I don't drink it and don't know anything about it. I'm looking to spend around 40 to 80 bucks. Any suggestions?

Pick a number and provide a context.

Franzia at $10 a box. Go with one of the varietals; the generic flavors are brutal. Should last all weekend.

I don't want to look like a i picked up the cheapest thing (I was told just don't get boxed) i could find, but i don't want to spend over a hundred bucks. Its not that big of deal though.

$100 for 2 bottles of wine? Plenty of decent stuff <$40/2 bottles. Ask the guy at the wine store.

Go with white wine. Pick up any Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc from Napa or Sonoma that has a nice looking bottle and an impressive sounding name. Clos du Bois tastes good plus it has a fancy french name with a fancy bottle. Don't spend more than 30 / bottle, it won't be worth it. Don't spend less than 10 / bottle either though.
