What's Your Favorite Wine?

Let's face it, wine and Airstreams seem to go together hand-in-hand. When we gather at rallies, wine always seems to be an integral part. What is your favorite wine varietal? Is it Merlot, Chardonnay, or ?

I like reds. A GOOD cabernet. Since I don't experience many good ones I do like Syrah, Zinfandel, Merlot and the like. I never cared for Chardonnay but sometimes a nice desert white is nice..Moscato. BUT 2 glasses is my limit......most of the time.

Oh Port! I knew I'd forget something in the poll. I good cigar and glass of port to sip. One of my favorites! If you don't like cigars, some chocolate and port is delightful!

How about chocolate port? My favorite is from J Filippi in Rancho Cucamonga. They also have a great $5 Chianti.

I am a Chianti man but I also enjoy Shiraz and a good Pinot Noir.

On the white side I like Riesling.

My favorite table wine is Carlo Rossi Paisano, cheap and good. I have a jug in the AS, awaiting our campout next weekend.

Cheers,
Ty

Talking Better red than...

Reds are so nice!


Homemade is great too! Some nice Canadian friends (Peter and Sharon) GT1963 made a marvelous red and generously gave us a bottle!! It was great!

Our favorite is by far the 1986 Riserva Giuseppe Quintarelli Amarone della Valpolicella. Brooke and I first discovered it in Carmel, at Little Napoli Restaurant. It is the best tasting red your palette will ever sample, that is of course if you can stomach paying $336/bottle.

We regulary go through a couple of $500 bottles of wine per day so $336 seems like a bargain to us. NOT! Yikes! I could have bought a GPS with that money!

It was our wedding anniversary...we celebrate it every 28th of the month, and our 740iL already has GPS, as does our Ram 3500.
