    Wine Sippers....

    Well I will admit I'm a wine drinker, not everyday, but enough to have tasted many wines in my time, I love wine it gives me a nice taste as well as a nice buzz, I prefer it over any heavy alcohol or beer. I just drank a few glasses and feel pretty good, it's Friday the kids are sleeping and me and my girl are enjoying ourselves. Any more wine drinkers out there?

    Re: WINE sleppers....

    Ha my aunt gave my mom a dessert wine from Leesburg, VA (she lives nearby) -- it's called Fabbioli Cellars Raspberry Merlot. Not normally my style, but it was pretty damn good... we had some cherry pie and it went great... just finished mine off.

    But yeah, I normally drink wine and beer. Especially when I make spaghetti or really almost anything tomato-based, I crave red wine. I'm not a connesieur of wine by any means (I'm more of a beer snob than a wine snob), but I buy pretty damn tasty cheap wines. I normally don't spend more than $15 per bottle and drink some nice wines -- there's a big liquor store that has a lot of revolving sales on high-rated wines, so I pick those up from time to time. But mostly it's to the liquor store a block over for some Yellow Tail-type bottle for $7.99.

    Oh, and I'm a huge fan of Prosecco. I like other sparkling wines/champagne/cava also, but for the dollar, I normally enjoy Proseccos the most. I like making Bellinis for late breakfasts ha.. blend up some mango or white peaches and stir the Prosecco into it. I like floating a raspberry in it too if I'm really feeling fancy. There's a restaurant downtown that has bottomless Prosecco for $10 or something for brunch.. good times on a Sunday morning, kinda ****faced and a stomach full of fancy food.

      I wish wine gave me a buzz. I drank two bottles of it once in a night and felt nothing, but farted louder and longer than I had in a loooooong time, lol.

          My uncle is a big-time wine guy, so I get pretty spoiled with my wines.

          Some of the stuff in his cellars is just unfathomable.

          Absolutely love wine though.

                I am a beer guy who very rarely find a wine I like. I did find one last month and have bought 3 bottles already(unheard of for me.) Dragonfly Red Table Wine by Glacial Ridge Winery, Spicer MN. It is a dessert wine I guess, sweet, fruity and goes down really good. Yum.

                    Haha, I used to think that way when I was younger - that wine is only for girls and gay/yuppy guys. I do enjoy it every now and then and I'm sure as I get older there will be a point when I primarily drink wine.

                        I will give you a bottle of wine that will have you tripping over your own thoughts...LOL... If you know what wine to get, you can get f'ed up very quickly. Most don't know that some wines have more alcohol then liquor and beer.

                        Go buy a bottle of a wine called Black Stone and have a few glasses and then report back to me.

                          I really like red wine, but the sulfites in red wine give me bad migraine headaches if I have more than 2 glasses.

                            ohh man wine headaches are the worst!!!!

                            I grew up with drinkers in my family that drink ONLY whiskey. So Jack, and other hard liquors were the primary form of drinks.

                            Still to this day I prefer my hard liquor, but I also don't mine a glass of wine. But good Beer is still my favorite
