What are some good wines that you guys have had over the years? I am actually thinking of going to the local wine store to get educated on wine.

My understanding is that the difference is usually in the grape, or region. Here's a decent blurb about it: http://askville.amazon.com/whats-differenc...questId=8497651 I prefer cabs over merlots anyday. I think that merlots tend to taste more bitter and acidic than cabs. Some people decide based on what food they are eating. There's the whole white meat/white wine thing. I don't really buy into that though. |
