Alright so I KNOWWWW that many of you can relate to my love of wine! I’ve had this post on my list for quite a while now, but just had to make sure I did an accurate tasting of each and every bottle listed below. Ha, I’m kidding. Or am I…
There’s nothing better than enjoying a glass of wine with a girlfriend, or winding down at night in a baggy men’s t-shirt with some reality TV once the kids go to bed. BRA OFF HAIR UP WINE POURED. Can I get an amen?
Below, I’ve listed over 20 of my favorite wines– all under $20! I’ve broken them up by color (red, white and rose).
I should also note that I am definitely a DRY wine type of gal. Especially when it comes to red. I really do not like sweet wine at all, so if you prefer sweeter options, this is probably not the list you want to refer to.
You can find most of these at your local grocery store or Trader Joe’s!

- Dark Horse Cabernet- $7.99

- ONE HOPE Wines Cabernet- this one is actually $25 but I had to mention it because the cause behind these wines is so cool. My friend Lauren is the one that told me about ONE HOPE (click here to shop). When you buy their wines, they give back to a wide spectrum of charities around the world! They’ve donated almost $5 million to non-profits.
From the bottle:
“ONEHOPE is dedicated to producing outstanding wines from California’s greatest grape growing regions while also making a positive social impact on our world. Our wines are crafted in collaboration with Rob Mondavi Jr., whose name signifies distinguished winemaking and unparalleled quality. Together, we create an award-winning wine with half of profits donated to help children with autism. Every bottle, every day, helps make our world a better place.
This bottle funds ABA therapy to help children with autism. Timely and intensive therapy has an 80-90% chance of showing significant improvement in children with autism.“
