If You Mostly Drink Full-Bodied Red Wines You’re Not Alone, But You Are Missing Out
Other wines are banging at your door and it’s time to open your home to them
During my time on the wine shop and bar floor, I guesstimate that 65% of the wines I sold were red.
And most of those were full-bodied reds. Cabernet Sauvignon. Zinfandel. Malbec.
Honestly, it made me want to cry.
Not because I don’t like full bodied red wine but because it meant people were missing out on a whole world.
Light reds. Rich whites. Rosé. Sparkling.
Perhaps you know what I mean. Perhaps when you buy wine you look for those that fill your mouth with rich fruit and a whack of oak. Especially if you’re looking for something decent.
And like I always say — you do you.
But having said that, I hope once you’ve read this, you might give other styles the chance they deserve too, especially when you’re looking for a decent bottle.
Because whilst no good was ever found at the bottom of a $5 bottle of white wine, a $25 bottle is another matter completely.
