Welcome to the board. You need to read up on the subject. Recommend Wine for Dummies by Andrea Immer. There are many others available, but that one is a good start.

Hotwine actually gave you two good books with which to start. "Wine for Dummies" (Ed McCarthy, Editor) is a good read, as is Andrea Immer's "Great Wines Made Simple." [img]http://wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img]

dimitmant,

So how young is really young? Old enough to drink I hope!

If you are new to wine and want a suggestion I would start with a Gewurtztraminer or Riesling for white or a Beaujolais or Pinot Noir for red.

They, in my opinion, are the easiest to drink.

Dan is correct. Sorry 'bout that.
