I try to get out and do as much wine tasting as possible. I'm NOT a conesseur--I either like them or I don't. I couldn't describe any of the flavors some wine tasters describe if my life depended on it.
My favorite variety to date seems to be very unpopular among most people, Petite Sirah. To me, its big, bold, and full flavored. Yet most seem to be easy to drink even when young--yet also have room for aging.
After Petite Sirah, I also like these varieties very much,:
Syrah / Shiraz
Cabernet
Zinfandel
I can't really get into white wines, as they lack the heavy body and fruit flavor that I like. I'm also not a big fan of light reds like Pinot--although I have found some Pinots that I like.
What do you all like?
