   Any wine as long as it's red and there's lots of it!    |

   Been off the turps for a while and won't be back on for some time either.
 I'm a sav / resiling drinker for white wines
 for Reds I prefer a shiraz/syrah or a merlot.. Too many tannins in cab sav for me.
 
 I rarely spend over $15 a bottle, there are some great wines between $10-15.
 
 Fav bubbles is still Morten Estate, although Lindauer isn't bad for the price.

   Natarawa Stables I love, with the Sav or the Chard. Mudhouse is yum, and so is Villa Maria.  I use to work with Wino's infact their number plate is WINOS, so I learnt alot from him!!! When I go out I usually drink the house wine. |

   Brown Brothers Moscato for a sweet wine or their Merlot
 Soljans Fusion for a sweet bubbly (LOVE the stuff!!)
 I know that anything that uses the muscat grape is quite sweet which I like but a lot of people don't
 other than that I don't really take much notice of wines I enjoy but I really should. i might actually try a couple of the suggestions on here too    |

   Good to see that a few of you have the good taste to love Oyster Bay (not that I work for them and am biased!!     )
 WestBrook do a beautiful Riesling and NobleOne is a great dessert wine

   Shingle Peak Pinot Gris is nommy (and it's really cheap this week but I can't tell you where cos it might be breaking forum rules   ).
 I always feel really bad buying wine when I'm obviously PG. My cellar is nicely expanding though. When I'm in the wine aisles, I always find myself saying "let's get some wine for Dad, Dan" really loudly in case I'm being watched    |

   I'm a red wine drinker these days however, Triple Bank Pinot Gris is by far my favourite white wine and my absolute favourite.
 My fave red wine is Nikau Point Cabernet Merlot
 Drinking a glass now in fact
