My adventure with wine got serious when I actually noticed that I had been drinking crap. I was fortunate to try a Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 1990 like 6 years ago. That wine is from Bordeaux, and even if I don't drink Bordeaux actively anymore, it marked my life.
There are a lot of wines that have marked me and my taste, and most of them are not expensive.
-> Louis Antoine Luyt "País de Quenehuao" got me into natural wine. (10 bucks in Chile)
-> Domaine Ostertag "Riesling" Got me into white wine. (~20 bucks?)
-> Kenjiro Kagami "Poulsard" Domaine De Miroirs, showed me how edgy and how much tension a wine could have. (maybe 30 bucks)
I could elaborate for hours, like good books, a lot of wines that I tasted are memories that I hold deeply in my heart.
I was also lucky enough to meet a great group of people who helped me to shape my own taste, suggest new exciting stuff or even share great bottles with me...
