Cahors for me, not as famous as other french red wines but being mostly malbec, I like how strong the taste is and how dark the wine actually gets in colour. Smells fucking amazing too, definitely recommend

I have a bottle of that wine in my wine fridge and I'm scared to try it as I don't think it will be my thing at all. I only bought it on a whim because one of my non-Australian friends said he enjoyed it and I wanted to check it out.

>>14371605
Haven't tried a lot of wines from Cahors but I'd imagine that it's good value compared to other French wines.

Just bought some reds today actually.

The first two are Nebbiolos from Alto (north) Piemonte in north-west Italy.

The third is a Pinot Noir from an organic and biodynamic producer in Burgundy.

I like chilean wine. The smoothest and nicest red I ever drank was from Australia and hand a koala on the label, so you knew it was good. 3 for a tenner.
I won't drink french wine. Sour, disgusting, shit. Never had any I liked. Years ago there used to be a french bird reguarly at my friends flat parties. She would drink all my chilean whilst slating it then insisting her french wine was superior and drinking it second. It was close to vinegar.
Fuck french wine and fuck the french.

frenchfag unironically drinking this these days. I was drinking cambras (around 2€ a bottle) but since it is like 3€ in my local overpriced shop, i switched to this 1.85€ wine which is certainly made with the mix of whatever's left at the bottom of the cuves of the cheapest french (?) wines. It doesn't make me nauseous so I consider it like a decent wine.

wine tasting has literally been proven by a troll to be bullshit, this guy pranked all the top sommeliers in the country by fooling them into complementing allegedly horseshit wine in a blind test. they couldn't even tell white from red apart, which is hilarious because it actually is easy to tell them apart even for a pleb but for some baffling reason these "pros" even failed on that front and have been coping ever since.

You are all the same assholes who make jokes about tasting menus and how “It’s a meal for ants.” You’re not “elite” because you chose to buy cheaper things, cheaper things aren’t automatically better because you personally enjoy them.

Spanish wine is amazing, and you can get good wines starting at $8.

Grenache/garnacha is the best, imo. My local liquor shop carries garnacha, and it's quickly become my favorite. I also like Monastrel, very astringent and bitter herb-like.

I got this mencia, except the 2014 vintage. I've noticed the $20+ mencias are always oak bombs and the $10 ones aren't, and I hate oak bombs, but I figure this one is 6 years old now so maybe it's mellowed out? does mencia age well? I guess I'll find out soon.

and it's definitely got some oak but rather than making me want to puke instantly it's actually kinda good in a weird way. it doesn't have the color of a 6 year old wine either, you wouldn't know from looking at it that it's been collecting dust in the back of the shelf. I'm drinking it out of a pinot noir glass because I didn't know what else to do.

this concludes "mid week splurges for poorfags: spain edition"

Picture this: It's 93 degrees out, high humidity, and cloudless, Your wine rack consists of nothing but cabernet sauvignon, syrah, and rioja. You have an intense thirst for wine that is cold and crisp. You don't own any rose because you're male.

Just when you're about to give up and drink a non-alcoholic beverage, you remember the kabinett riesling in your fridge. You crack it open and pour an 8 ounce glass while eating enough sharp cheese and prosciutto to raise your blood pressure several points. Life is good.

I wouldn't have those red wines. I'd likely have garnacha, monastrel, pinot noir, malbec, maybe some merlot.

And I drink white wine every so often on a rare occasion. But last time I had it at night while lurking, it did not vibe with me at all. The freshness and sunniness of it contrasted badly with the vibe. No sir, gimme red wine any day.

Red Wine friends,

I have a bottle of rioja that I opened probably a month ago, maybe 2, in my warm pantry. It's like a half cup of wine that's just been sitting there in the bottle. It smells raisinlike and oxidized like sherry, actually quite pleasant. Is this still safe to drink?

You're unlikely to get great Langhe Nebbiolo, although I've had some damn good ones. Great Nebbiolo-based wines mostly come from the subregions of Barolo and Barbaresco, but there are some great Nebbiolo wines coming from further up north these days.

Absolutely wrong there, anon. Early screw caps barely let any oxygen in so the wines closed with them actually last longer. Modern screw caps and synthetic corks are modeled after the oxygen transfer of traditional cork, albeit with more consistency and less failure. To test the effectiveness of non-cork closures empirically in the long-term is still going on, but there's no theoretical reason why they would fare any poorer.

Also, sulfites are used to prevent premature oxidation, but also prevent sweet wines from refermenting and guard the wine from unwanted microbes.

What makes a decent wine?
I drink wine because I like the effects and compounds that add to it. I couldn't care less about "mouth feel" or "finish" or "tannins."
The best part about wine is that it doesn't take too much to give you a buzz and it contains compounds that give you a mood boost+some health benefits.

when I say it was a fad that's now passe I mean the way people used to go "oooooh I can really taste the VO and damm the brett funk made me vomit in my mouth a little this is SOOOOO GOOOOOOD", people have a lower tolerance for stuff like that now, although in general people are a bit more open minded about it than they would have been 20 years ago

Also I would argue that brett and acetic acid present rather differently in beer than in wine, where they have more of an additive rather than a subtractive quality.

they're mostly biodynamic farmed vines and they use ambient yeast fermentation

natural doesn't mean you have to use qvevri sealed with beeswax, it's a pretty loosely defined concept and there's no official list of what is allowed or not allowed, hence why some people advocate for saying "non interventionist" or "minimalist"

True, but just because they are biodynamic and use natural yeasts doesn't mean they don't manipulate the wine in the cellar in some way.

Hell almost everyone worth a damn uses natural yeast ferments these days, little reason not to.

cope more faggot. it's true that presentation, placebo, etc. matter and a lot of taste experience can be psychosomatic, but that will only take you so far. the fact that they couldn't even tell red from white is just sad and casts doubt on the whole thing.

if i put a cool label on a diaper full of turds and have five hot women rub your naked body in baby oil in a dimly lit parlor while you scoop out a bite, that infant shit still isn't going to taste like apple pie

all red wine from california tastes the same because legally speaking you can sell literally anything you want and call it anything you want, it's probably not even pinot noir, if you reply with muh judgment of paris it just proves me right

I would say new oak is far more additive than controlling temperature fermentation, but you still might be right.

I honestly prefer a strict definition of organic farming, natural yeast ferments and no additions to the wine at all. I guess new oak is fine to a certain extent. Natural is really more of a spectrum than anything.
