Ok, I'm going to a Festival next month that involves camping, and I'm gonna' be with a very important girl, if you know what I mean [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/wink.gif[/img]. Now I want to find the perfect wine that'll get us drunk, but still taste good, so I'm talking strong. I'm sort of new to wine, and I don't have a lot of money to spend, so I'm thinking $50 tops. I had some wine a few weeks ago, and it was pretty good, and I was drunk and went dancing, but I don't know what it was, it was just so perfect [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/frown.gif[/img]. So basically, I'm looking for a moderate priced wine good for drinking with that special someone around the campfire or on the beach or something, out in the wild, with people everywhere. Remember, I want good alcoholic volume, along with taste. Somebody help me.

Are you/she going to get tipsy from two glasses of wine? I'm thinking no.

You're not telling us if you/she prefer red or white wine. We are suggesting red because it has a higher alcohol volume than white.

What I would do it buy a bottle of Frexinet bubbly, extra dry, to start. Should be around $10.00. All girls love bubbly and the "extra dry" is a little sweeter than brut so it's easier to handle. Have some strawberries to go along with it.

Then...I would buy a nice bottle of Zinfandel (red). You can get them for under $20.00 a bottle and this time I would have chocolate covered strawberries.

With women it's all about seduction...she wants you to take your time. Feeding her strawberries and drinking bubbly will definately seduce her and take the edge off.

Truthfully I think you can buy all of this for under $50.00.

Good luck!

Still another suggestion is a 2002 Beaujolais Cru such as Fleurie or Julienas or Brouilly. You might want to taste them first if possible to see if they are smooth and fruity or overly tart.
