One of the great discoveries of 2007 for me and many Vayniacs was the Torrentes grape from Argentina.

    I LOVED the Torrontes that was in the Thanksgiving pack, so I’ll have to make it a goal to seek more of them out.

    Hello Gary,
    welcome to 2008!

    Interessting show – I’ll try to find a wine dealer that has Torrontes around here, not sure about the situation for this wine in Germany.
    Found only one other Vayniac from Germany in the comments – so now I’m on a mission to spread WLTV here!

    QOTD: Stuttgart, Germany.

    And by the way, I’ve been lurking for a while and am just now coming out of the shadows.

    And by by the way, my wifes in the same boat so help us both out.

    I like the show and I don’t even like wine.

    Seriously, I’ve tried a variety of wines and have not found anything I find even remotely pleasurable. I’m trying. And it’s not like I’m not willing to overcome a little “acquired taste” issues. I like beer. I like coffee a lot. I’m not averse to alcohol at all. I’ve just not tried any wines that I enjoy.

    So help me out. What wine do you recommend for someone who doesn’t like wine?
