I feel like all alcoholic beverages take like crap. I know most people do not drink alcohol for the taste but for the effect, such as beer and hard liquor. However, many people drink wine for the taste. I’ve tried many types of wine and I still think it tastes horrible, so how do people stand drinking wine for the taste?
so i’ve read the basics of this type of wine. Its sweet, mixed with brandy, made from late season grapes…
What i would like to know is how it tastes. Me and my wife just started drinking wine. We like the white Zinfandel and merlot, my wife LOVES Moscato We tried Pinot Grigio
last night it was a lil to tasteless. My main concern is…Does it have that stronalcoholol flavor? You know the kind that makes your face pucker and exhale deeply? I’m looking for a romantic fireplace wine.
I like drinking wine but i’ve usually left the choice up to whom ever i was drinking with at the time. The other day i went to the store to buy a bottle and as i was cluelessly looking at the miriad of labels facing me an employee asked if i was looking for anything in particular. Well, with most of my wine knowledge gleaned from the movie Sideways i blurted "i’m looking for a nice Pinot Noir" she smiled and pointed out a few choices. I grabbed a Francis Coppolla diamond label I figured if a movie made me blurt out Pinot Noir then maybe a bottle from a famous director would bail me out. At the register we began to converse and we seemed to hit it off. I’d like to go back and speak with her again but i don’t want to seem like a fool. I’ve read everything i can find online and i know a little more than i did that day but maybe some one has a few tips i could use to select another bottle, without seeming like an dolt.
Or should i just admit i know nothing and let her be my guide.
Need I mention I want to make a good impression… Admitedly this is sort of a relationship question as well.
east coast, I like red, The Coppolla was good, not great… this was a large store with a huge sleection of wines…
Basically: I’m 21 and have little to no experience with this, lol. I spent my teen years drinking wine coolers and Blue Moon at parties with friends- that’s basically the extent of it. I was recently at a club where someone offered me a drink. I said no thanks, but in actuality would have liked to accept- I just have noooo idea what to order.
I have made a website http://www.veritaswines.co.uk/ in an effort to learn more about wine clubs and start collecting wine myself. All the information on the site has been made from reading books and researching online but I have never collected wine myself and I would love to hear from someone that does! I would like to find out why they collect wine and what wines they feel are best? What’s the most versatile wine?
I love drinking wine but as I am on my own a the moment I don’t buy it cause I always feel wine is for celebrating! I want a good wine for when my girl friend comes to visit and If I get any other visitors!
The Charleston Wine & Art Club held its second event at Tristan downtown on Market St. Four delicious wines were served to the attendees and two bottles were given away. Video collab: www.tweetinthecity.com & http
I remember when i was young and tasted wine, i swore to myself i would never taste it again. But now, a couple years later i see myself drinking wine a lot!
