it depends on the meal I am having wine with, or if I am just drinking wine to relax, in that case definitely white

Give me a good Gewurtztraminer over a red, any day.


Huh, as it happens, I indulged in a 2015 Columbia Gorge "Joel Gott" Gewurztraminer (Joel Gott Wines, Columbia Gorge, Dundee, Oregon) on Christmas Day. Bought at Trader Joe's in Seattle's University District, 4555 Roosevelt Way NE. Another good one available there is the "Gundlach Bundschu", from Sonoma County, California. Both are, as I recall, around $12 to $14 and as tasty as just about any wine I've had under $30 a bottle. Most folks don't seem to be aware of this varietal and how wonderful it is. The Joel Gott Gewurz doesn't seem to be available there any longer though.

White wine, hands-down. Moscato or riesling any day of the week and twice on Sunday smile

I like the reds, cabernets, merlots.

even with seafood, I've tried the various whites but just don't find the pairing. it's just me.

this pic, not me, it was sent to me from a get together I missed.

I enjoy both, but have started to favour red Rhône’s more recently. Having said that, a Riesling has a lot to recommend it.

Being born and raised in one of California's premiere wine regions I prefer red over whites generally. The truth is, drink what YOU enjoy. Don't worry about the label, the cost, etc. Look how popular "Two Buck Chuck" was a decade ago at Trader Joe's.
I'm a big Zinfandel fan, and the past decade have come to enjoy Tempranillo. In whites I still enjoy an old school Sav Blanc, and recently Albarnio. Everyone's taste buds are different so I'll say it again- drink what YOU like.

WTS, my Grandfather had several vineyards when I was a kid in the 60's and 70's. He was also on the board of a co-op winery making generic jug wines back then. As a high school kid I learned how to prune vines, pull ditches for irrigation (way before drip systems), and I've even drive truck to the winery during harvest season on weekends. Today my brother, cousin, and I run the ranch operations and also contract farm for other vineyard owners. We decided around 2000 not to build a winery. Too much risk, and none of us had the desire to be a winemaker.

My first job out of college was with E&J Gallo in sales in the Los Angeles market. I continued with them for two years, also working in Seattle and Sacramento. One thing the Gallo trainer told us on Day One was this, "You can make bad wine out of good grapes, but you can't make good wine out of bad grapes. It all starts in the vineyard."

My hometown now has over 80 wineries in the appellation and wine tourism is a major thing. The area was named Wine Region of the Year recently by Wine Enthusiast, a winemaker was named Winemaker of the Year, as was one of the larger wineries. The area has been known for its Zinfandel in the past, but the past 10-15 years several wineries have planted Spanish varietals like Tempranillo (red) and Albarnio (white).
