Amarone Della Valpolicella DOCG 2020 Fulminato

Etna Rosso DOC “Dea Vulcano” 2021 - Donnafugata

Chianti riserva docg-collezione-oro-magnum-cassa-legno-tenute-piccini-2020

Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore Sfojà

Il Bruciato 2022 Antinori (super)

I could go on for pages, pages and pages but in Italy even with 20 euros a bottle you win easily

Is there such a thing as a bad Chianti?

I would suggest Chianti Classico over plain Chianti to avoid a “bad” one.

Cartuxa from the Alentejo region of Portugal is consistently an excellent wine in the $20 range...having in the past been a great admirer and drinker of rather expensive 1st and 2nd growth wines from Margaux, St-Estephe and St-Julien on the West bank of the Gironde , I found after living in Portugal for 12 years that many of their wines offer outstanding quality and are especially a great value proposition, a very underrated wine growing region of the world.
