Favorite wine?

0.9.28, because it's the latest version.

Actually, my town has a famous winery, Widmer's Winery, owned by Constellation brands. They make some good stuff. They have the #1 selling Kosher Wine in the world, AFAIK. That's what I was told on the tour, 5 years ago.

My favorite wine has always been the wine my church gives us for Holy Communion. It tastes magnificent, and it's potent as hell. I think I'm going to take several bottles at some point.

A friend of mine had a family winery, and always got bottles of this stuff I liked, but he moved away, and I don't drink that stuff anymore.

Riesling, specifically the Columbia Vineyards Cellar Master's brand. That's the stuff I was talking about in the other thread.

A bottle of Chardonnay Bourgogne, sitting in the shade, while it is about 24 degrees celcius outside. A nice slow village, a not to busy square, some friends walking by, moving along after a short chat. Some olives, some nice cheese and a good newspaper. No work, no obligations. Slowly dozing off...

EDIT: Make that two bottles Chardonnay Bourgogne.

I've been very impressed by some of the Gewürztraminers from Central Otago. I'd find it hard to pick an individual favourite from them.

The umlaut is correct. Double letter amended.

From what I've found as with liquor, the more you pay, the better you get. I still haven't paid more than 50 American for a bottle of wine, and quite frankly, it doesn't matter what it is as long as it's good.

Just no chardonnays.

And as for champagne, same principle.

It better be, or else it won't be able to keep the demons at bay!

I prefer reds, like merlots and cabernet sauvignons. I was stuck on some of the california brands, but I've been drinking aussies lately. I personally cant afford the good expensive stuff, so I've been drinking black opal and black swan. not bad for the price.

Buy some Manischewitz blackberry wine. It's the exact same stuff; I have some in my fridge.

[alexz721]

It doesn't quite taste like Manischewitz.

[Sharessa]

Communion Wine is potent? No wonder the Catholics always end up rolling around in the aisles.

[SYS]

Homemade red wine. Next to no preservatives, great taste, and high booze content.

[Bank]

The cheap shit. Always a good decision.

[Ed]

A gallon of Carlo Rossi.

[Maes]

Anything sold by LIDL, especially Italian wines, good, cheap, and excellent value for money. Red wine = good. White wine = synthetic sulphur-laden alcohol :-D

[Kirby]

Port, so long as it doesn't suck
