Any wine geeks out there?
Wish I could afford the real deal - show me your most expensive bottle
Wine?
How much did it cost?
What a load of hyperbolic bullshit. Wine has more than it's fair share of pretentious critics, but wine tasting is not "entirely subjective", preference is, but not the wine itself.
alright so uhh....
I'll steer this back to an actual wine thread...
Chilean reds are the best on the market.
I'm drinkin' a 2014 Pinot Noir by Santa Rita. Yeah, nothing special - expect it was 4.99 and tastes like a 40 dollar bottle of pinot.
I suspect chile will make a uptick within the forseaable future. I've been to France and Cali and Chile makes a pretty great competitor
As someone whose depth of wine knowledge is puddle deep what would you recommend for someone who likes full body reds? I like Argentinean Malbecs and I've had some good Cali blends.
Just got banned for calling that retard out.
Fucking mods/jannies here really are cocksuckers of the highest order.
literally this:
wine.com
but yeah - for whatever reason the south american reds I find around will be in stock for 3-4 months and then disappear to be replaced by different labels. I buy them when they are 3-5 dollars and they're always superior to the price.
malbec, pinot, etc. They're all fucking awesome, but the "label" always seems to change.
>no cab
Thanks senpai, any whites you recommend?
also - drink some french pinot to get exposure. don't go over 25 bucks. a good pinot will have a "tannin" finish and a nice fruity body. The strength of the two will depend on you. There's a shitload of complexities in between but this is the simplest. I like eh the taste to go like acidity - sweetness(blackberry, or brighter) then blending toward chocolates/caramel/bitterness
no.
lol. my wife likes pinot gris - but uh eh I cook with it. *shrug*
I take that back - en.wikipedia.org
