Light Wine

[robr]

Hi Tuse, and welcome to the board! If any wine leaves a bad after taste it's probably a very inexpensive "plonk", a term for cheap poorly made wine. If anything, you should really enjoy the after taste (it's called the finish). Most wines are not really sweet, but more dry. Are you looking for a red wine or a white wine?

A lot of beginning wine drinkers like white zinfandel, but it's pretty sweet. You might want to try either merlot or chardonnay. The more you spend, the wine tends to taste better. I would recommend looking for a wine from Robert Mondavi. They are nearly always good.
