Daily wine thread

You need to drink more and make sure to take some water inbetween trying different wines.

Nah

Ive always liked all kinds of wine, and I drink it frequently, but I had your problem till I went wine tasting for the first time. As a newbie, I was taught the 'correct way' of sampling wines.
Putting aside the stuff about staring at your wine and sniffing it a million times before tasting (I know youve gotta take in the aroma, but I feel like you can over do it) one must that I learned from the whole thing was how much easier it is to really distinguish flavors while drinking if, after you swish, you inhale through your mouth right after swallowing. Something about allowing air to travel over your tongue right after a sip really let me actually pick out those different notes of flavor that I never noticed before.
Yeah, Im a pleb, dont care, but that may help you enjoy and differentiate wines a bit more user.

Do you let them breath? You know that acidic taste you get when you just pour a glass. You especially gotta do this with older wines

Not drinking anything rn but im about to go on a wine trip on the weekend to Szekszárd and im P U M P E D

Buying wine at the grocery store is like buying meat at the gas station. I seriously hope you guys don't actually do this.

My dude. My new place I found recently only stocks unfiltered biodynamic small producer sulfite-free wines, along with local nanobrewery beers and ciders.

The wine epiphany is real.

How is it?

I'm looking to get into wine for health reasons.(And maybe as an excuse to blow money on alcohol) Any health nut here knows which wines have the most antioxidants and how much to drink a day?

Oxygenating your wine in your mouth by slurping air is the best way to taste the wine, it's just apparently rude to do it outside of wine tasting events.
Wine needs to breathe to attain it's peak taste then it declines, you really notice it when you're drinking a bottle slowly and each glass is relatively different from the last one.
Which is why everyone is spinning their glass like mad and slurping all around wine tastings cause you don't have the time to wait for the peak taste and the bottle may have just been opened recently. Temperature also plays more of a role than people think, a few degrees can change the taste of the wine.

Try to get a light northern wine red wine like cabarnet franc from loire and a heavy southern wine like negroamaro from southern italy, if you can't taste the difference after letting them breathe properly then your tastebuds might need some work to get unfucked.
