- sulgi - 10-09-2002 Hi, I really don't know anything about wine but I would like to give a gift of a selection of wines from around the world. The problem is that I live in South Korea and there really isn't anywhere that I can go to ask. So PLEASE HELP ME! I am able to buy a nice selection of wine here but I can find no one to tell me about it or to help me communicate. I would like to stay in the $10-$25 US a bottle range and I would like to have 12 different bottles from 12 different countries. Ideally I would like 6 red and 6 white but I am open to suggestions. Thanks for any help that you can offer me, Sulgi - Innkeeper - 10-10-2002 Hi Sulgi, and welcome to the Wine Board. If you have no place to ask, hopefully you'll have a place to buy. So here you go: Germany: Riesling (W) Austria: Gruner Veltliner (W) France: Macon Villages (W) Italy: Pinot Grigio (W) Spain: Rioja (R) Portugal: Dao Riserva (R) U.S.A.: Zinfandel (R) Chile: Cabernet-Merlot (R) Argentina: Malbec (R) Australia: Shiraz (R) New Zealand: Sauvignon Blanc (W) South Africa: Steen (Chenin Blanc [W]) - wondersofwine - 10-10-2002 Well done, Innkeeper. - sulgi - 10-10-2002 Thank you so much for your quick reply. I should be able to find most of them. It will probably require a quick trip to Seoul, but then I always love doing that. I will keep you posted as to what I have been able to get. If I have trouble getting something, would it be okay for me to contact you about a substitute? Thanks again, Sulgi - winer - 10-11-2002 Sulgi - I don't know if you can buy Canadian wines in South Korea (probably not), but if you can, have a look at the list of wines from British Columbia that I posted in the thread entitled "Canadian wines" here in the novice section of the board. |
