Ok - Pink wine is White Zinfandel, not Chardonnay. It is the Pink Wine that tastes like un-sweetened Kool-Aid. What didn't you like about it? Too sweet?

i think if i remember right it was just watery , not strong enough . wee could have been drinking the cool-aid maybe not sweet enough too



Compare the wine to soda for me. Do you like the tartness of Fresca or the sweetness of Pepsi. Besides water...what do you drink?
we drink code red , everyday .


I feel compelled to ask. Why do you want to drink wine if you are not drinkers?

we are not drinkers but on our anniversary , at 13 years , it will add something fun maybe a little adventure . something new to do and try , cut loose on our day alone and away from our 4 children ,lol .

If you are more comfortable with a mixed drink - that's ok!

dont think ever tryed any mixed drinks before , lol . not really interested in it . the wine just seems to be more on the romantic side ?

I would suggest that you pick up a bottle of inexpensive sparkling wine (you and your friend) and add some Chambord (raspberry liquor) to it. It just might be what you are looking for. It's sweet, yet not Kool-aid.

i think we will try that :-) see what it is .

If you are set on wine, I would buy a German Riesling (which is sweet, yet different than the pink wine) or a Riesling from Alsace which is a little drier. The people in your local liquor store can help you.

I would experiment before you celebrate your anniversary. If you don't like them, at least you know.


thanks for help .ill let you all know what we tryed and what i liked and if liked enough to bring along to colorado . lol
