Who likes wine?


I'm definitely not a wine snob. I regularly drink Winking Owl Shiraz from Aldi and I think it is quite tasty especially for $3.49 a bottle.

Would I serve it at a dinner party? Nope. But it's a very drinkable wine that I would serve on the patio with friends for casual get togethers.

What do you like????????

I don't drink wine often but I do enjoy it.

I do! I mostly like the sweet stuff though so I'm the exact opposite of a snob! Give me the $10 bottle that's all sugar please lol. I have tried bottles that are $50 and $100 and I just don't get it. Some of them are crap imo and all of them are not worth the money. Most of them compare to a good bottle you could get for $15-$20 or much worse.

The very worst tasting thing I ever had was a $300 bottle of wine that someone ordered years ago at a sales meeting. I thought it was terrible, but like I said, I'm not a wine snob.

Sensitive breeding...rich bouquet...strong vinosity…what's not to like?

I had a friend who turned me into a wine drinker. My favorite is the 19 crimes label.

I'll have to look for that and try it. I love Gnarly Head Old Vine Zinfandel - I can get it at Kroger for about $10, but at that price it's not something I drink every night. I enjoy wine with dinner and drink a couple of bottles each week, so I try to keep the price reasonable.

In addition to the Winking Owl Shiraz, I enjoy Beringer Main and Vine Chardonay for around $5 and in the summer, Yellow Tail Pino Grigio that is around $6.

It's a pretty cool brand and they even put Snoop Dogg on a label recently. The prices for each bottle range from $8.99 to $11.99.

What do you like the best from this label - red or white?

reply

I haven't tried the white but I guess I should. I always go with the red wine.

reply

I like red wine. White,not so much.
Clear red wine,if wine is truly quality. If not red wine + coca cola is fine.

reply

Red wine with coke?! I've never heard of that. Kind of like white wine with lemonade?

reply

I love shiraz. My favourite is from Aldi too! It's got a red gheko or something on the label. It's about £4 a bottle. Can't remember the name but I'd recommend it over similarly priced Hardy's or Lindeman's which are both about £6 a bottle.

reply

Not sure what that is - will have to look the next time I'm at Aldi.

reply

I've just looked, its called Kooliburra from South Eastern Australia. It may have a different name in different countries 🤷‍♀️. Definitely only available at Aldi though. ( in Britain at least) .

They do a merlot too with a purple label.

reply

Red and white are fine. I rarely drink it though.

reply

I drink about a bottle a week. Mostly cheap sweet stuff like howgamer
