I pose this in a "stuck on a deserted island" style.
One bottle around $50; after that's finished the rest of your life is spent drinking coconut milk and going insane, so it better be enjoyable. For drinking now, or cellaring in a dark cave for your rescue 15 yrs later, doesn't matter.
I pose this because, well, I thought of the conundrum and can't make a decision.

I think its a waste to take a bottle of wine. Once you open it you have to drink it
. Fortifieds on the other hand... one mouthful a year

2 litre flagon of Chambers Rosewood Liqueur Muscat (even though you would get nearly 20 bucks change). Wine bargain of the world, and would last for many months at a couple of sips a day.
Sharkey I love cooking with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

You'd fall asleep in the sun after the first litre and get burnt to a crisp.
Cheers Brian Life's too short to drink white wine and red wine is better for you too! :-)
