Choosing The Right Wine Is Important

It’s strange how we are all so different when it comes to choosing our wine.

Some people are such wine snobs and know exactly what they are looking for and certainly won’t settle for anything less.  They don’t mind how expensive the bottle is, and are more than happy to spend over a hundred pounds on a bottle.

Some might choose their bottle of wine by the packaging and colour of it.   I will admit that some wines do come neatly packaged, but I certainly wouldn’t choose one over another just because of the look of the bottle.

Some folks don’t drink red wine because it gives them a stinking headache the following morning. A possibility of course is that they have drunk too much of it!!

I can’t actually stand either rose or white wine, unless it happens to have a bit of a fizz to it.   A favourite Spanish Wine that fits into this category is the classic Cava. I love Cava so much I actually prefer it to an expensive bottle of Champagne. If you can buy a decent bottle of Vintage Cava then you really can’t go wrong.   It’s always a favourite in our house when we have something to celebrate.

I also have been known to drink a glass of red.   Unusually though I love my red wine served chilled and the colder the better. I can hear wine snobs all around the world yelling that you can’t possibly drink red wine if it has been chilled, but that’s what I like to do and it is my choice.   A good example of a nice bottle of red is a Cabernet Sauvignon.  This is a beautiful Chilean Wine that tastes superb.

I will say that I am not particularly fond of French Wine. I think it’s due to the fact that I’m not keen on the French full stop, so I tend not to buy their wine!!
