I'm not a wine snot!!
I love a good, crisp, dry Alsacian Riesling with spicy or German foods - can't stand the sweet whites, but I thought they were just fine when I was much younger. For me, it's all about what food am I having with it, and what is the season? Summer, more dry crisp whites and roses; winter, mostly reds - I especially like the French Rhone-style wines and French, Washington and Oregon burgandies/pinots. Not much of a fan of California reds as they tend to be too heavy in the alcohol department and not as food friendly.

As they say at my local wine shop (grocery stores cannot sell alcohol here): A day without wine? Why bother?
