Okay, I have a 6gal batch of Dave's DB clearing and a 6 gal batch of a Prickly Pear that just went into the secondary and I find myself with an empty primary sitting next to another empty 6 gal carboy. Seeing those empty is starting to bug me. I think I would like to try a "real" wine so I look to you veterans of the vine for some advice on which to choose as my first. I don't want to spend a ton of dollars but I don't want to be skimpy either. My wife and I don't usually spend a bunch on wine and we don't usually drink it on a regular basis...yet. I am open to almost any wine. I haven't really had a wine I didn't like. I am more partial to reds that are a bit on the dry side. My wife is more of a fan of sweeter wines such as port or mascato. If given the choice, and not knowing much about wines when I get to the store, I usually get a bottle or two of a Mondovi Cab or Merlot. I seem to be more partial to the merlots though. My wife and I have found that we do both enjoy Menage a Trois by Folie A Deux. Please let me know if you have any specific questions that will help you aid me in my new purchase.
