Last night the wife and I enjoyed a little Torrentes that came back with us from Argentina; good stuff - easily becoming my go-to white for summer.

And the options get much greater if you move up to the $30 range.
2009 was a KILLER VINTAGE in Europe. The red bordeaux and burgs are awesome.
Any help with a good Rose? I have tried a few here lately (Sophia, Louis Martini), but nothing is really hitting the spot.
I'm not a big fan of Rose's, but if you aren't looking for only sparkling, the Mulderbosch Cab Sauv Rose is drinkable and its only like $12.
If you really want a good rose sparkling, the Argyle is really good, but its like $50.
Traveled up to Wolf Mtn in Dahlonega, beautiful place and pretty damn good wine.
I know very few true lovers of wine who do not love great rose wines and there are plenty of great roses to choose from--mostly from france.
If you see it around, this is a fabulous rose from the Southern Rhone. Runs about $25-$28.
dry flat rose and rose champagne are two completely different things that should not be compared in any circumstance.
Any other Rose's you guys would recommend? Preferably around $15-20 range.
Will be paired with a Harissa Rubbed Grilled Lamb if that helps at all.
Do you have to go Rose? You could go with a good Reisling, torrentes or even Picpoul because of the acidity.
My wife has been buying the Ormarine Picpoul for the last few weeks its like $9.
