The Wine Poll

[Jason]

Name your favorite wines.

I like Penfolds Thomas Hyland Shiraz, Heller Estates Chennin Blanc, and Chateau Sauvereign Cabernet Sauvingon.

[Ben]

I dont really have a region i prefer, but there have been some good wines coming out of Australia. I usually prefer reds. Cab and Pinot Noir.

[Rumble In the Jungle]

if you like australian then you'd love the shiraz. try the black opal or the goundry shiraz, delish.

Any brands to look for?

[Rumble In the Jungle]

black opal or the goundry, you could also try the syrah's it the same as the shiraz but it's made in cali. Cambria or kimcrawford aren't too bad either. we have over a 1000 wines on our list at the melting pot. if you guys have any questions about wines haller at me.

i am staying just outside of paso robles, ca.
rumble, i was in cambria yesterday. paso is known for all its wineries. its nice because you can just go to a winery and try it before you buy it.

I am not drinking any fucking Merlot!!!

I'm far from a wine snob, but this stuff is tasty. Spicy, yummy... goes great with a nice cigar. Not for those who like girly wines though.

That stuff is a perennial favorite of mine, cuz it's cheap and I like rustic wines, and by rustic, I mean not hugely fruit-forward, jammy wines like many from the US and Australia (in other words, not a girly wine.... ).
I used to sell fine wine for a living, if anyone wants some serious bang for the buck wines that are actually wines that are considered GOOD by the wine drinking public, let me know.
Of course, drink what you like always applies.

[Jamie_B]

Not a fan of the spicey stuff.
