I agree , its a beer and beverages forum , no need for a seperate one for wine .
I like wine with food. I also sometimes have a wine instead of a beer at dinner meetings , etc.
i was a big fan of white wines and knew a lot about them. I am partial to rieslings , especially johannesburg reislings. I also like most german white wines. i also like fruity reds. I used to buy a lot of chateau neuf du pape which was very inexpensive back in the mid 80"s but has become very expensive now. i remember when a Beaujalais was like $8 and a Chateau neauf du pape was like $6. Now the beaujalais is still about $8 but the chateau neuf du pape is like $20 for a good one.
I also like ports but a good port can be very expensive.
I will also admit to drinking may share of wine that comes in the 5 liter boxes. those things are great. They fit in the fridge and 5 liters lasts a long time if you just have a glass or two a day. very economical too.
