I don't really like red wine at all, and the right champagne beats any wine in my taste when it's not combined with foods.
Well.. what i mean is "Spätlese"... roughly translated "late harvest". No idea how the english call it... and i am too lazy to look it up *g*.Disaster Button said:
Asti seems to be a specific brand, not a type?
Seriously? I got drunk off a whole bottle of red once. It's horrible...WrongSprite said:This

Depends on the quality and what I'm in the mood for, actually :3 I can't just pick between red and white like that!
Red wine. Same reason as I drink stout on its own, it has a rich enough taste not to NEED hefty backup.
I do lurrrve Riesling though. God that stuff is good. And hella cheap!

For everyone who's too damn lazy to click it - it's a hilarious study where wine 'experts' were unable to tell the difference between red and white wines!
Don't take it too seriously, though, wines still do blatantly taste different. It's just those guys were taken in by the messages around them.

Asti Spumanti is basically champagne but made in Italy. I think. Like Cava is Champagne from Spain. That's my understanding of it. I hate sweeter astis, and champagnes, and cavas. Very rare that I find one I like.Disaster Button said:

EDIT: Nooooo...sorry.
I like red wines if I'm just sat about watching tv or whatever or with my parents (as they mainly drink reds).
Although I do like a rose too, I like the refreshing taste and lightness of them. Blossom Hill zinfandel and grenache are probably the two I drink most.

I find my self to enjoy something more sweet, so... white. Though red still catches my interests.
I used to drink red for preference, but to be frank these days I drink anything short of toilet cleaner... Actually that makes me sound like a bit of an alcoholic :-/ fact is i'm just not really fussy any more, if it has alcohol, and its in my flat, it will be drunk inside a week or two.... except that one bottle of kahlua, in the cupboard. I'll be desperate the day I finish that off I can tell you.
