I’m the opposite of our friend AlbanyJane. Blegh! No thank you. I want mine red and dry as hell.

Maybe it goes along with my acerbic personality:)

K? And you just need to get over that hump.

Keep the questions coming. I am considering adding a section that addresses reader questions (aka your questions). Not that I don’t have a full slate of topics to keep me busy for months to come. I haven’t even touched on Albany stuff yet, but I am building up to it.

I must say, the hunt is quite fun. I enjoy choosing a ‘book by it’s cover’ and it usually works out quite well. Not sure why I face psychological opposition to buying two of the unknown bottles at a time (despite your rational re-gifting and sangria advice).

You don’t have to answer this, but your tips for selecting a wine seem less applicable when having to select from a restaurant’s wine list. Is it true that the second from the cheapest is the best value? I seem to remember hearing that somewhere…

Or at the very least, not dry. I like just about all of the Brotherhood wines, and you can find them all for <$10 per bottle.

Also, I have a serious love for Lake Country boxed wine, both white and red. It is practically grape juice and insanely easy to drink. It’s like $10.95/5-ltr box @ Capital Wine in the Target plaza.

Oh, and another sweet cheapie – Ballatore spumante sparkling wine/”champagne”. Easily found for < $8.

This wine is $10 on sale, excellent example of Marlborough, NZ Sav Blanc, one of the most highly respected regions in the world for this varietal.
