Do You Drink Wine?

So it was you, Shale, and who else?

 

I am very fond of one called Danzante which is reminescent of many flavors and very smooth and un-acidic yet complex

 

I don't recall

 

LOL!!!

 

I have yet to really squire the taste for it at 28.

I am more inclined to drink white wine over red because I don't particularly like warm beverages. My lady drinks red wine and that's her drink. She drinks the red wine daily. I drink it... Very rarely.

Now honey wine (mead) is completely different and I'm known to down a bottle while watching a race or a football game or a movie or whatever. Straight outta my 750ml drinking horn, it fits a bottle of mead. During warm months I drink it straight from the fridge, during winter I will heat on the stove in a pot. I love mead.

 

LOL, you think all wines are meant for cellaring.

 

Just poured a little night cap. I think i'm just gonna relax on my yacht for the rest of the evening.. maybe even puff on a cuban

 

Yes, I did sound a bit snobby then

 

I used to drink Australian Merlot and Shiraz, sometimes a Chilean or Argentinian Malbec,
but more recently I've been trying French reds, mostly Bordeaux, and Spanish Rioja, all pretty good.

If anyone has recommendations for good Italian reds I'd like to hear them.


My thinking was partly about the carbon footprint of the New World wines (I'm in the UK)

Occasionally I drink white, my favourite is definitely Chardonnay.

i dont drink wine :dizzy2:

 

Just got off work and picked up a bottle similar to the one i had a few days ago, bu this one is called menage à trois midnight

Basically like the sexy step sister of the wine fro ma few days ago.



I'll write a review of it later tonight.


and for that vaniilla gorilla snob this ones from 2013, so suck it !

 

I drink red wine. I had some last night...it had a pepper taste..it was so damn good!

 

I live in an area with a growing number of small wineries. Many of the vineyards are in former tobacco fields. Some of them have live music and other promotional events on summer weekends, and many of them bring their products to wine tasting festivals all over the area. I find some of their wines to be unique and interesting, and the road trips can be fun.

If I had to pick out a single wine as my all-time favorite, it would have to be Kendall Jackson chardonnay from California.

I don't get the whole craft beer thing. I don't drink much beer, and I stick to the basics.

 

I wish we had more wineries here but ontario really is crap at making wines. The best canadian wines are from BC. We have tons of cideries though and we do have some of the best ice wine.

 

my review as promised... this was the dark side of the menage a trois from earlier this week... such a dark passionate red color.. bursting with dusky armoa. taste of voluptuous blackberry with plush spiced plum and a hint of mocha on the end. a nice long smooth finish.. like being wrapped up in a silky throw on a cold autumn night

 

Rollinstoned, I did not know that you were such a wonderful writer! Wow....

The only thing is ...is that I did not know that silk was warm....
I guess one learns something new everyday.....

 

Never was much of a wine drinker but there are many wineries here also and I have tasted some local wines that I really liked. One was Blackberry...was yummy.

 

Oh, and I am not a wino....

Winos are what the drunks on the streets are called that drink cheap wine.....

I never really acquired a taste for wine...i prefer the white if I have to have any...maybe I never had a a good wine to really know....

 

just poured my night cap after a long days work. such an excellent way to wind down

anybody joining me tonight?
