Charlie Arturaola,Wine Professor/Sommelier in residence at the College of
Hospitality Management at Boca Raton’s
Lynn University, says the following wines—from all over the world—offer a great value-price ratio. “Most of them won’t break your wallet,” Arturaola says. “And only one should be saved for a special occasion, the single vineyard from
cabernet sauvignon from
Honig.”
