What kind of wine do you usually get, /ck/?
cocks
Anything but Merlot.
Australian shiraz, usually from South Australia, as old as possible, usually under $15 unless I'm feeling fancy. Whatever label amuses me the most at that moment.

Let me guess, you drink the glorious vinegar that is Californian merlot.
>>7972958
Not a fucking chance.
>>7972958
I avoid california wines almost as aggressively as I avoid aussie wines
I'm sorry you can't have nice things, anon
White: Gavi, Marlborough Sauvignon, anything from Loire valley.
Red: Mostly Italian reds, sometimes a burgundy, I've been drinking a few Rioja recently too
>>7972961
Oh, so you're more into the Skittles and Jelly Belly overtones of a good Italian chardonnay then. Oh well, to each their own!
>>7972929
I always try to have a dry white, a sweet red and dry red on hand for cooking. Also does sherry count as a wine or spirit? I cook with that too.
>>7972963
Tend to agree.
New World fines are piss.
Rosé and dry Reds
can't stomach white wine uezs
>>7972978
You're right, Mateus truly is the epitome of viticulture.
>>7972989
I have no idea what that is, but I detect an angry Aussie, Californian, or Kiwi (see: Aussie)
Depends on what I'm eating.
Provincial Rose
Gruner Vietlener
Muscadet
Faghalina
Super Tuscan red blends
Bordeaux
Burgundy
Cote du rhone
Whatever puts a stick in the wine snob's ass.
>>7972989
Portuguese wine is rough, mate.

So what is it? What could it be that would made me care what kind of swill some uncultured pleb swine drinks? Come on, be specific, fagglette
>>7973010
Surely is. Sometimes I'll see a bottle of it on sale and consider it for nostalgia reasons. My grandfather loved his grotty old world wines...
I also haven't had any lambrusco or spumante since he kicked the bucket, thank god for that much.
>>7973051
You sound old as fuck dude
I bet you think chianti is gross and comes in a straw bottle and austrian wine has antifreeze
goon bag to wash down my red velvet tim tams because i'm all class
>>7973059
Yep, oldfag. And chianti does still sometimes come in a straw bottle...
>>7972929
Amarone, Barolo, Brunello, Super Tuscans, Chateauneuf du Pape, Shiraz, Primitivo, and Negroamaro.
riesling halb trocken or trocken
>>7972929
Every 6 months i go in the countryside (i live in France and i go in Bourgogne) to buy about 60 liters of locally made rosé aswell as 60 liters of red wine
>>7973362
Chataneuf du Pape is a type of cote du rhone right?

Your post sounds like projection
Why is this?
>>7973992
because it's the only retort you can think of when you've been #rekt
The one that comes in a box and gets you drunk
Usually some Grüner Veltliner
Port. The other wines are for children
Dr. Scheiben-Frostschutzmittel St. Laurent
The '85 is a perennial favorite
>>7974623
>anything but one of the sweetest wines out there is for children
What are some good wines for a complete novice?
>>7974634
Vinho verde, fresh, cheap, and "quaffable" (inb4 sperg rage)
Careful not to buy anything older than current year minus one
>>7974633
To be serious though, I find non-Port red wines to be flat and boring by comparison now. Even a legit decent one seems much less interesting and simpler tasting. No one else feels that way?
I think sweetness is a fantastic complement to the other flavors in wine too. Riesling is another example of sweetness working well with wine flavors.
>>7974875
Maybe I haven't had the right ports, but I find sherries to be much more interesting and fulfilling
They run the spectrum from dry to sweet, from light to heavy, but always with a ton going on flavor and aroma wise, regardless of style
Port seems like it's just always sweet and heavy at all times
>>7973004
So, Aldi wine, then?
It doesn't mean much to insult Aussie/kiwi wine here as the Aussie wine you find overseas is generally piss marked up for export at 2-3x the price you'd buy it for at home.
You have to spend over 35USD to get a decent bottle going for 15USD here.
Im partial to red
>>7972929
Red stuff from Europe. Like, Bordeaux or sangiovese. usually in the 30-buck-a-bottle range. I usually never go wrong with those.

who sells these?
its on the tip of my tongue and I just can't recall who it is
Pic related is my go to. Not too sweet, not too bitter, and pretty cheap. Occasionally I'll get something nicer but if I'm drinking wine it's almost exclusively red.
>>7978526
nice one, sometimes I think there aren't any gentlemans on /ck/
all these retards would pair it with mountain dew
>>7978563
Its No Name brand by Loblaws. Depending on where you are the shops have different names. Superstore being the most common in Canada.

>>7978939
"Le vin sans nom" means "the wine with no name" or "the nameless wine". In this case, because "sans nom" is the brand, it's "No Name wine"
I bet it tastes sweet and horrendous
