I love my wine and over the years have tried loads.

I'm more partial to white than red. What about you, What's your class in a glass?

[webbo3]

I like a glass of Sancerre, chablis or quincy for whites.
Red wines you cant beat a good Rioja or a St Emillion or a margaux.

A good chablis in the summer

and a warm Rioja in the winter.

I did have a few glasses of Opus 1 once... �130 a bottle.. delicious, but too pricey for me...

I dont drink at all. I came in the thread cos I thought it said

I love my WIFE and over the years have tried loads. I thought 'ooh, that sounds interesting' lol

[daffy654]

I think i'm allergic to wine as I always get a headache when I drink it,...........not a hangover the following day but while i'm actually drinking it. I have tried several different types and they all do the same thing to me :-(

[jack daniels]

it could be the tannins that affect your head daffy - it's quite common.

I like White Zinfandel
Hardy's Crest
Blossom Hill wines
German wines ( got sweet tooth when it comes to wine)

I've always heard that a bottle of Chateux Neuf Du Pape is an excellent mid-level entry Red to try; can anyone recommend this?

I like Chablis too. Not really a white fan. White is more of a companion with food whereas Red can be drunk as a drink.

I've heard good things about Rose Sancerres. Rose has come on alot over the last few years.

lmao akapixie thats a cracker ; )

[jack daniels]

thanks Zac - as long as it's not anything like pinot grigio (however it's spelt ) I didn't like it at all.

Anything red and cheap which tastes OK. Some of the stuff they sell in supermarkets in Spain (11% alcohol) for about 50p a litre is ideal!

I tend to go for the lighter reds, but a nice cheapish M�doc would always grab my attention too.

reds hurt my head. I believe it's the tannins. The more expensive they are the less likely I am to get headaches, but mostly I just go with whites, even with red meat. A nice unoaked chardonnay, for instance. If all else fails it'll have to be Blue Nun.

I think I'll get shot down in flames when I admit that the only "wine" I like to drink is Lambrini, especially the cherry one!

[winebuyer]

The best wine is the wine that blows your socks off. And that's probably not the same one that the guy at the next table is enjoying. The question, as always, is "what works for me?" But look at it this way ... if you find a wine for �5 that you really enjoy, but that guy at the next table had to pay �100 to find one that he enjoyed, who's the mug?! (Oh no, wait, that other guy probably thinks he has "more refined taste, blahdy blahdy, blah". Well, he's probably the guy who's drinking the �20 bottle of water!). And when you find a bottle of wine that you've never heard of for �3, you buy it on spec, and it turns out to be fab, then you have discovered class in a glass.

[winebuyer]

... and that's when you should go back and buy it all up, and not tell anyone about your discovery.

(except me, you should tell me obviously).
