My Top 25 Wines of 2014 Under $25

Back again by popular demand, I once again made a list of the best wines I had this year under $25. Every one of these wines should be available in the Oklahoma market and certainly worth the effort to find. I recommend showing this list to your local retailer and they can find them for you. It's worked out to be an Italian heavy list this year, but lots of wine from around the world. Also, it seems to be a nice mix of both red and white and sparkling. Let me know if you find a favorite. Again, these are in no particular order. Message me with any questions.
