Not every wine is for every drinker. I might love the same thing you hate. A good friend of mine absolutely hates red
wines from California. There are several
I really enjoy (although most of them are from smaller vineyards and not
something you’ll find at your regular grocery store).
My very close friend Susan loves, and I mean LOVES, wine
from Italy. I find it isn’t my favored
style of wine. Most of the reds are too
light for me, and besides drinking an occasionally Chianti, I don’t have much
on my shelf that represents Italian wines or Italian styles of wines.
However, I often get gift bottles of Italian wine and I get
them in my monthly Wine Club, as well.
(Although I am able to swap out the ones from Wine Club if I want
to.)
This one is okay for a non-Italian drinker. It’s full of
fruit – mostly cherry and blackberry with a hint of plum. There’s a little bit
of smokiness and the tannins are soft. I’m sure most drinkers will find it
fabulous. It’s just not my style. I’m like a bull in a china shop when it comes
to wine – bigger, bolder, and more in your face is better.
