Voting for Wine

[stevebody]

The only thing I want to add here is that it's good that you know that your wine-drinking experience is limited. You sound like the sort of person who really likes wine and will broaden out. I hope so. Like most people, I started with Chard and Merlot and dropped both of them very quickly (and sorta permanently) after tasting some other wines, especially whites. I have a lot of customers who habitually drink NOTHING but those two and refuse to ever think of tasting Cabs or Zins or Viognier or even bubblies. My hope for every wine lover is that they taste as many different wines as possible because the range of flavors is so vast. That said, NEVER take any guff from anybody about liking what you like. Drink whatever you want. People who criticise this are wine posers who are more interested in flaunting their own knowledge or just rude jerks. Drinking ANY wine is better than drinking no wine.
