It’s strange how we are all so different when it comes to choosing our wine.
Some people are real wine snobs and know exactly what they are looking for, and don’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 do come neatly packaged, but I certainly wouldn’t choose one over another just because of the look of the bottle.
Some folks don’t drink red wine because it gives them a stinking headache the following morning. Maybe this could be because they might just have drunk too much of it!!
I can’t drink white or rose wine, unless it 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. In our home it’s always a favourite drink when we are having a bit of a family celebration.
I also enjoy the odd glass of red wine. Unusually though I love my red wine served chilled and the colder the better. I can hear wine snobs all around the world yelling that you can’t possibly drink red wine if it has been chilled, but that’s what I like to do and it is my choice. A good example of 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 it’s due to the fact that I’m not keen on the French full stop, so I tend not to buy their wine!!
