Australian shiraz, usually from South Australia, as old as possible, usually under $15 unless I'm feeling fancy. Whatever label amuses me the most at that moment.

I always try to have a dry white, a sweet red and dry red on hand for cooking. Also does sherry count as a wine or spirit? I cook with that too.

Surely is. Sometimes I'll see a bottle of it on sale and consider it for nostalgia reasons. My grandfather loved his grotty old world wines...

I also haven't had any lambrusco or spumante since he kicked the bucket, thank god for that much.

To be serious though, I find non-Port red wines to be flat and boring by comparison now. Even a legit decent one seems much less interesting and simpler tasting. No one else feels that way?

I think sweetness is a fantastic complement to the other flavors in wine too. Riesling is another example of sweetness working well with wine flavors.

[Anonymous No.7974885]

>>7974875
Maybe I haven't had the right ports, but I find sherries to be much more interesting and fulfilling

They run the spectrum from dry to sweet, from light to heavy, but always with a ton going on flavor and aroma wise, regardless of style

Port seems like it's just always sweet and heavy at all times

So, Aldi wine, then?

[Anonymous No.7975576]

It doesn't mean much to insult Aussie/kiwi wine here as the Aussie wine you find overseas is generally piss marked up for export at 2-3x the price you'd buy it for at home.

You have to spend over 35USD to get a decent bottle going for 15USD here.

"Le vin sans nom" means "the wine with no name" or "the nameless wine". In this case, because "sans nom" is the brand, it's "No Name wine"

I bet it tastes sweet and horrendous
