Who likes wine around here?

I don't want to say wine enthusiast because you don't necessarily have to be an enthusiast to enjoy a glass of wine. Anyone want to sound off about a recent wine experience, bottle, winery, accessory, etc.

I just had a bottle of a spanish white wine called Txakolina for the first time. Had never heard of it, and didn't think a wine with such a strange name could possibly be good, but I tell you, on a hot day, it was about as delicious as a wine could possibly be.


Anyone else have a tip or story?

I've always loved to sit back and chill with a glass of cabernet savingon (sp?). I love the taste and the warm feeling of a wine buzz.

Wine and I have an intimate relationship. Personally I like Pinot Noir.

I like most wines that I've tried. Most expensive I've had was $5 a glass Olive Garden though so I don't know names. I just know that I generally like it.

Has anyone heard of this?

Wine Vintage Card

I found it searching for wine tidbits and it sounds interesting.

I like sweet red wines, you wouldn't know the names of them cos they are foreign.

Bored out of my mind.

Wine is almost like water here. It's part of the meal. That said, I'm not a big fan of wines maybe because I don't really like to drink while I eat. I like to drink after. I do enjoy the apéritif wines, usually white wines.

Sadly, I'm allergic to wine and champagne. I like the taste of both but can't drink either.

I love wine. I'm partial to Pinot Grigio but there are a few reds I love too - Big House Red, Coppola Claret, Georges DeBouf Beaujolais Villages, Yellowtail Shiraz, and I really love a good Meritage but it's really expensive. I also look forward every year to the Beaujolais Nouveau

I dream of a world in which chickens can cross the road and no one questions their motives.
