What kinda wine is that sauron?

Cabernet sauvignon, Banear Friuli.

It's aged in oak wood barrels, which give an awesome taste to it.

No shit eh?
Got any other favorites?

I've developed a taste for wine over alcohol in general. I still drink brandy, scotch and jagermiester but i've been drinking wine lately.

It's cheaper than getting drunk off beer and tastes 6 times better.

Absinthe (pure fun), Guinness (good for general personal health), assorted wines (good for the heart and mind) and spirits (Not so good for you, in general), paint thinner and arsenic (both of which are great for the liver in moderation, i.e extremely small amounts, unless you happen to be serving it to others, that is. Then, and only then, excess is order of the moment.)

They be my preferences, though I'll drink just about anything when I'm off my 'I don't drink ever' phases (which are sadly frequent) usually uncommon sense prevails.

'Zigackly.

Kahlua pwns all. I like me some Corona, too.

And I have to agree with Sub about Kahlua and Corona, but add Mezcal and Yeungling to the list.

Beer, careless of the brand.

Overproof Bundaberg rum and cola is my favourite. Rarely indulge though and when I do I don't drink enough to get drunk.

exactly, if you chill it enough you don't taste anything anyway.

I don't drink wine unless I'm with and old aunt who offers it to me over dinner. (just the wine that is). Its expensive and doesn't have as much uses as beer, e.g. emergency hair gel.

by the way, Corpse that rum and cola just made me thirsty

Likewise, pity is too late to go to the bottleshop over here.

Tru dat. Its not like youre in the danger zone of getting a blod clot or a stroke or anything like that. Unless youre obese overweight of course. Are obese overweight?

Wine tastes fine, especially red wine. White wine is too feminine for my linking. That plus the taste being significantly worse.

I was referring to Retlaw's heart, and obese state.
I personally don't give a shit, I just enjoy wine a lot.

MFG, the Marcevole is a pretty good wine too, although it's hard to find here. I know of one restaurant which has it, and the SAQ doesn't sell it.

Hoya de Cadenas, Cruz de la Piedra, Astica, all good wines. Argentina has amazing wines and they're really cheap. The Astica is like 8,10 $ and it's as good as some 20 $ bottles.

White wine is good with certain type of foods. Fish, shrimps, lobsters, sushis. Riesling is awesome with sushis, although saké goes better with them.

Red Stripe and Stella yo. For spirits I stick to Pernod, Vodka and Gin.

Beer is winning chaps, I guess no hard drinkers here... perfectly sane.

How come fallout fans don't enjoy the rot-gut?

My cholesterol levels and heart are fine, ass-for-brains.

Yeah of crap, gawd I hate wine. It's got to be the second most overrated drink on the planet (after Champagne) especially the french stuff. If you have to serve me wine give me some from the new world, at least it's palatable.

Otherwise you can't beat a good pint of real ale or a pint of cider. Though now the weather's turning cold a nice snifter of Brandy or a mug of mead (heated) goes down well and warms the cockles of your heart.
