Hi Bluebird, and welcome to the Wine Board. The easiest way to start with red wine is with Beaujolais Nouveau which is available now. One bottle at a glass a day will last you three or four days. Try to transfer it to smaller, sealable containers each day with little or no airspace. Air kills wine fast.

After this month, move up to regular Beaujolais, as the Nouveau has a very short lifespan. After that you may be interested in some other wines, so come back for more advice.
