It’s funny how when it comes to choosing our wine we are all so different.
Some people are such wine snobs and know exactly what they are looking for and certainly won’t settle for anything less. It doesn’t seem to bother them how expensive the bottle is, even if it costs over a hundred pounds.
Some might choose their bottle of wine by the packaging and colour of it. I will admit that some wines are packaged from a real marketing point of view, but that doesn’t mean the wine tastes any good.
Some people won’t drink red wine because it gives them a stinking headache the next day. Maybe this could be because they might just have drunk too much of it!!
Personally I can’t stand white or rose wine, unless it just happens to be fizzy. A favourite Spanish Wine that fits into this category is the classic Cava. I love a nice glass of Cava, infact I actually prefer it to Champagne. If you can get your hands on a decent bottle of Vintage Cava then you really can’t go wrong. It’s always a favourite in our house when we have something to celebrate.
I also love a nice glass of red wine. Funnily enough though I absolutely love my red wine served chilled and the colder the better. I can hear the cries of wine snobs all over the place crying out you can’t chill red wine, but that’s what I like to do and if I enjoy it that way, then that’s how I am going to drink it. A nice bottle of red is a Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a beautiful Chilean Wine that tastes superb.
I will say that I am not particularly fond of French Wine. I think perhaps that’s because I’m not keen on the French full stop, so I boycott their wine!!
