    Red in the winter or with red meat, generally white in the summer, rosé for the garden. Sparkling never

    Chateauneuf de Pape. My son brought me back a 16% version a couple of years ago. I have never seen a higher percentage wine?

    There was a few years back an Australian white wine sold by Laithwaites called the black stump. The finest wine I've personally tasted.

    Black Stump is lovely, but it's the red I like. A very full bodied Durif, I could drink it all night. If I had any. Always found Laithwaites reds much better than their whites.

    Red generally. South American or Australian seem palatable these days.

    I always tell people that I've never had a bad Chilean merlot

    Red

    Like a merlot.

    Also jammy red you can drink cold.

    Guvenor, a Spanish red, is good value.

    When I'm fine dining at Charlton Retail McDonald's I like to wash it down with a nice Chablis.

    Chateauneuf de Pape (Not red) but white, hard to get in the UK. Plus Chablis preferably premier cru

    Black Stump is my go to red as well - but it is too easy to drink at times! I use the Sunday Times Wine Club quite a bit, which is of course Laithwaites.

    I also like Merlot and a good Barolo, and for white I would usually go for Pinot Grigio or Chablis.

    Guv’nor is really good value. Great deals on it at Majestic normally.

    I’m a sucker for a drop of Chenin Blanc, you can’t whack it.
  • lolwraylolwray
    Italian Reds,Rioja or a nice Gamay

    Chianti I enjoy. 

    I have used Naked Wines on occasion when they have some random offers and always been happy. It’s a chance to try something different.

    Jammy red roo is like drinking ribena. Dangerous stuff.
  • LordflashheartLordflashheart
    Barolo - god of wine 

    After that Rioja 

    Red wine all day long (and every day for me) 
  • KettsJohnKettsJohn
    Aldi do a sparkling merlot which is also very easy to quaff and lose count of how many you have.

    Gewertztraminer for me.

    Ahhh a thread I can dig into. Became a wine salesman 1 year ago so I’ve taken a deep dive into it

    For Reds-Argentine Malbec, California Pinot Noir

    For Whites-Off-Dry Riesling, Chablis

    For something sweet (my all time favorite wine)-Banfi Rosa Regale-One of the few sparkling sweet reds that isn’t Lambrusco. Absolutely incredible product

    The next one.

    Seriously, I can't drink white it gives me heartburn. Love a red though, a nice Shiraz or Merlot.

    For a special occasion I thought I would treat myself to a decent bottle of wine last week, I had never spent so much on a single bottle before, but it was tainted and spoiled!, some idiot had only gone and stuck a cork in it.
  • LennyLowrentLennyLowrent
    Whatever colour as long as it is Shiraz 
  • WHAddickWHAddick
    A Malbec for a red
    A Gavi di Gavi or a Picpoul for a white
  • HuskarisHuskaris
    Chianti when I'm in Italy, Malbec anywhere else. 

    Very rarely drink wine, only ever red and in a restaurant.
