Bored and disappointed in wine

[TheEngineer]

Drew,

I totally agree. Try three things that might just smack you on the side of the head

(1) buy older wines. See if you like the good wines that have evolved over time. old Bordeauxs and Burgundies might just blow you away...
(2) sounds like you are tried of the fruity stuff, try some so not fruity stuff like rustic Barolos, Aglianico's. Or look to different regions and ask for the older producers. Look at the Cab francs from Chinon, etc,.. The Loire wines are great. Try some white wines of character....like Gravner's stuff or, stuff Tokai, Assertiko,
(3) look for a wine store that stocks stuff from off the beaten path like Kermit Lynch or something...have then guide you...might need to try it a few times..

Good luck. hope to hear back from you.
Maybe we can do a virtual tasting of a region one day.
