I know a lot of you don't drink, but if you drink wine, what is your favorite kind?

I'm having to switch up my selections because they haven't been thrilling me lately. I prefer pretty cheap wine that doesn't taste cheap. ha! Im not tough to please or anything.

we like White Tail wine from Australia

Do you like sweet wines or dry wines? Red wine or white wine?

I'm not usually a red wine drinker, but my neighbor introduced to me a "local" wine here in California and it was PHENOMENAL! It's sweet and it's just like drinking grape juice. Before we knew it, we'd polished of THREE bottles of it!

The type of wine is called a Cardinale and I don't remember the name of the vineyard. If you like, I can pick up a bottle and send it to you! And yes, Pam!!! I'll send you one too!

I'm not a big wine drinker anymore, but many of my friends like this Chardonnay.

And these from Folie a Deux are good:

We like YellowTail, but my new favorite cheap that doesn't taste cheap is Barefoot wine. Especially their Pinot Grigio, but the Merlot is also good.

DH bought me some Barefoot Wine for my birthday (Riesling) because I wanted to try it -- it is still waiting to be opened.

I don't have a favorite brand either; I've just started buying different wines to try and I think I've gotten through one bottle in the last six months.

I prefer sweeter wines myself. Usually Reislings.
The one I get the most cuz it's tasty and cheap is called RELAX ($11 CDN). I drink the white and it is tasty! I also like one called MOOSELAND, this is a bit more in cost ($15 CDN) but very tasty as well. And I also like this brand called Trivente. They are an Argentine wine and are cheap and tasty! The one I like the most never seems to be in the store though. haha!

Have fun!

Oh, and I want some of that california wine too Chrissy! haha!

Here's one to go with Susan's wine... LOL! It's actually quite good.

I rarely drink at all, but if I do, it's just straight whiskey (one shot or two) and that's it. But I have had a wine from LemonCreek Winery in far southwest Michigan- near Berrien Springs, Michigan. They make a good white one.
