    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?

    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.

    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.

    GV,
    Sorry to hear about your loss. Special people in our lives make them worth living.

    Nice openning salvo to 2008. Still have not tried a Torrontes, will have to make a delayed New Years Resolution to do so.

    QOTD: High Point, NC. Would love to get a tasting group started down here.
