Red Wine: What's your poison?..

[duranman]

I'm sure you Yanks love your wine as much as us these days. What exactly's your favourite, why, where do you get it and how much? If you guys are like me, pretty much every meal's accompanied with the stuff these days...!

Sample any of the local wines when you were in Dallas?

 

[Lorilei]

Red isn't my poison. Sorry!

 

[RudeNastyAssBitch]

I drink the cheap stuff, Lambrusco is one of my favorite red wines, I mostly drink white though.

A great Italian Super Tuscan would be great this afternoon

This evening I just enjoyed a cheapie from Lidl (that's a discount German supermarket) Pinotage from South Africa at £4. 14.5 % proof (which means it's at least that) and jolly good I must say...

14.5% is ABV, alcohol by volume. 14.5 proof would be about 7.25 ABV. Just being picky.

Pinotage is also grown in California around Murphys in the Sierra foothills. I remember picking up a couple bottles about 10 years ago.

Is it 3.2 or 5.0 Coors?

Big topic in my youth...

Dunno, no Coors in Alaska during my youth.

We had it, but only because we were in KANSAS.

Back then, you could make good money by taking it from KCK overtown to KCMO where it was illegal because it was not pasteurized...
