A good wine does not have to be expensive. I actually should not be.

The expensive ones usually don't live up to the name anymore, it's just branding. Mechanized harvest (because big game) pulls in bad berries, leaves and insects too, makig the taste worse, not unlike the cheap wines. You're likely to have a better experience with a local small winery.

You're preaching to the choir.

I live in wine country and even the big wineries here still do the harvest (vindima) by hand.

I said "usually". Good if they do.

That sensitive of a palate is worth good money.
