Top 5 wines at $5.99 (or less)

The holidays can get pretty expensive, with gifts, food and entertaining expenses piling on until after the New Year (especially if you want to hit one or two after-Christmas sales), so it is always great to find a way to save some money without loosing out on quality. Food is one area where it is difficult to cut back, since price and quality are often closely linked. Paying more will usually get you better meats, cheeses and chocolates, for example. When it comes to wine, however, price are quality are not necessarily as closely inked - not unless you're talking about $100+ bottles of wine, anyway. Since AOL Food has a much larger staff than we do, they went through many bottles of wine to find five great ones that are $5.99 a bottle or less, perfect for serving with holiday dinners or bringing along as a hostess gift to a party because they are guaranteed to taste good without breaking the bank.

  1. Trader Joe's Coastal Cabernet ($4.99)
  2. Amaicha Torrontes ($4.99)
  3. Banrock Station Shiraz ($5.99)
  4. Barefoot California Merlot ($5.99)
  5. Barefoot California Chardonnay ($5.99)
