Beer drinker turned wine guy,,, needs help

[glassman]

I have been a beer drinker since my teens,, I am now 35 and find my tastes changing.. I know NOTHING about wine, other than I like what I have tasted so far.. I would like to know What to drink with what,, how to store it,,, I live in a very small town, so not alot is availible... I have tried white Zin,, and Chard(sutter home), and some red wine that was good.. I am litterally starting from the begining.. Could somebody give me some place to start, I don't feel comfortable asking people I know,,, THANK YOU !!!!

Hi Glassman, and welcome to the Wine Board. Check out the thread currently under this one entitled "I Need Help." If not right there right now, will be in the neighborhood. For $6.50 including S&H you can get an invaluable guide to the wonderful world of wine.

Don't know what the shipping rules are in Iowa, but internet wine ordering may enable you to escape the white zin malaise of the midwest and venture out into undiscovered territory. Read a book, pick a variety, jump in and enjoy!
