What Are You Doing Right Now? (149 Viewers)

No.

Blind taste tests have been done with pro wine drinkers and their guesses were all over the place.

Here in the US you get the biggest bang for the buck with the very affordable Chilean and Argie wines. Not sure what their prices are in Europe.

Better yet - and this is for fellow health geeks - stick to the distilled stuff, the healthier alt (red wine being healthy isn't true).

Brunello is very affordable in Europe. If it's that expensive in the US, I wouldn't buy it.

But in general I do agree with your first point. The differences between wines is not as large as some people would have you believe. I don't pretend to be great at tasting wine either.

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

Most expensive wine I ever bought was 25€ Luis Pato Vinha Pan which was nice but I am also content with 10-15€ price range for wines

Into the second bottle of wine, relaxing by the fire, pond-side at 1:30 in the morning. Lol

You should take a picture of your feet up and the wine glass with a dumb caption like "my view tonight" then post it to instagram like the bitch you are.

Are expensive wines really worth it?

Depends. Are you an instagram hoe?

I don’t use Instagram. I’m not a social media whore like you, darling.

You pay for the tannins, not the grape or the terroir it was bred from

Wine prices in Canada are silly. That 25€ Luis Pato Vinha Pan is $45+ here in Canada.

Plenty of whites are weak on tannin yet expensive. It's hard to say. French wines and their 600 dollar wooden barrel do taste differently. I can't really say there's no difference between cheap and expensive wines. However, I do think that quality wines can be bought for 15-25 euros per bottle.

Even some 10€ wines can be good but normally they cost 20€+ in here (and alcohol/wines are expensive here).

For sure. I think there are good Chianti wines for 10-12 euros.

I prefer a fine vintage Franzia

Boxed wine is superior to any bottled vintage

Red doesn't taste very good, that's the extent of my knowledge.

 

[Dostoevsky]

No idea why people say red wine. It's black wine.

White wine is also quite yellow-ish.

I just can't take the bitter/dryness, just doesn't taste very good to me . As long as port isn't like that, I think I would like that.
