I am convinced that expensive and rare wine, and "collecting" wine is for people who are too uptight to admit they like to get drunk. For some reason it just seems less boozy-floozy to hold onto a glass of chardonnay than it does to hold onto a jack and coke or a margarita or something. <br />Here's a trick--If you buy a bottle of cheap red wine and it is too acidic, put some salt in it. Or a few drops of liquid stevia. (health food store) Try it!sallynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706867684354336699.post-22324980289107968922011-02-06T21:10:04.650-05:002011-02-06T21:10:04.650-05:00Well, I love my wine!

Luckily, I live in a town that has dozens of vineyards and wineries so the local fare is awesome and there is lots to choose from. Also, I don't get fucked up as quickly after drinking a bottle of wine like I do do after 3 cocktizzles. Try Barefoot Pinot Noire from Lodi. Delish.

Boyfrie...Aww, Bitchy, don't put yourself down. Boyfriend & i have been going to wine tastings for 3 years or so now (every Tuesday evening), and i still don't know a lot about wine. And i don't CARE! I know what i like and what i don't like. I don't CARE if some high-falootin' wine "expert" says something is good or bad or whatever; if i like it *I* like it. That's what counts.<br />Plus, i never taste the (chocolate, tobacco, pears, whatever) that those snobs say you're supposed to taste... until i've had *juuust* enough. =-)<br /><br />The first thing Boyfriend & i started doing was figuring out if we like white or red.<br />Red. Check.<br />Then we started to narrow it down to if we like Zinfandel (which is a RED wine), Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pino Noir, etc.<br /><br />There's just SO much that makes a difference in all wine, like the country it's from (and the region in that country), the weather that year, plus alllll sorts of other stuff.<br /><br />To me? It's just too much!<br />To me it just boils down to "Do *I* like this? Yes? Then by god, pour me another glass!"<br /><br />Do what works for *YOU*!<br /><br />Love your blog!<br />=-)Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18290498016642859265noreply@blogger.com
