Agree with your analysis and preferences except would change around the Syrah and Malbec. Also the ice cube is a big NO for me, but my wife also does the same occasionally 😉
As a beginner, not a a pro. But my Cardiologist recommended that I start drinking wines particularly Reds. He was from Spain. After 25 years of my heart attack I finally did. Also had a 4 way bypass. I do wish I had taken the advice years ago. These are in the Bible. When you research the vitamins and all the goodness of the process of wines are so very good for you. Wish I had listened a long time ago. I think I was more shamed into Not drinking wines. Learning the hard way😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yep, This is what the Apostle Paul wrote to Timothy: . 1 Timothy 5:23 Do not drink water any longer, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent cases of sickness. . .
My top two are Malbec and Syrah. I particularly love Felino Malbec. Syrah's I'm still exploring to find my fav brand/ year but lordy, I do LOVE that Felino!
Nice video. My two favorite are Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir. I've tried Malbec it's good! I'll also drink Merlot, hell I'll try any red wine! I recently tried Barbera and Barolo. They were both very good, but for me of those two Barolo was better! Cheers!
There are a ton of shades when it comes to red wine: from pale ruby to deep tawny. I recommend for you to look at wine color chart at winefolly. com to see which one will fit your project the best. Good luck!
THANK you so much such a.. such a rich beautiful full of content video I love your accent ,you are gorgeous, thank you I just started following you Never too late to start learning about wines and the good things in life that sometimes we missed out
There are soooo many great wines to only narrow it down to 5!!! I need to make a part 2, because Tempranillo, Sangiovese & Nebbiolo definitely deserve recognition!
I am after a full bodied fruit red wine that is over 14% any advice have a nice pasta dish on wednesday I am cooking would love a nice red to go with it.
Merci Love it. Cheers! 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋 I love them all. Depends on the weather and the mood. Depends on the occasion too. Let's celebrate a Vow to cherish. Ummmmmf Ulalala Bring it on. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Love love love Italy and Italian wines! I actually have a separate video dedicated solely to Italian wines you must know about. make sure to check it out!
alcohol content NEVER dictates which wine i drink. Its alcohol content is secondary to me. My favourite? a Good McLaren vale or Barossa Shiraz is my go to red.
loving the red wine experience, Really when I very started thought it was merlot, like Others, were I fell most and fully in love with Pirot Noir, still today. Then really getting experience, Carenet savignon, now one of my favs. I love experience wineries to see where my level of beastie and experience has leveled. The art of wine and history, beauty each winery has to display excites me. This is what the art of wine is?? just like art? what do you have to pare with it. All I can express is beauty. Thank you Esther
I very much relate to what you said above! Wine is art and wine is a journey, and it's a fun journey for sure! I started off loving Pinot Noir the most, thought that it was the best of reds. Since then my taste has evolved and I definitely gravitate towards fuller-bodied reds like Cabs and Malbecs. Who knows, maybe one day it will change again! Enjoy!
Feels like over half of the video was taken word-for-word from betterbooktv's Red Wine Guide. Did you also get your information from the same book, "Wine Simplified"?
Nebbiolo! The violet and rose petal nose and fruity flavors of a mature Barolo are wonderful. I am drinking up my 97s, as they are fully mature now. And don't forget Sangiovese (as in Chianti and Brunello). Actually, most of my wines are French, not Italian, being a lover of Bordeaux and Burgundy.
Wow .. this was an amazing info vid. I know nothing about wine, this video just popped on, now I know outside South Africa it's called SYRAH. 😅 .. Thank You .. 🙂
I've only just started getting the taste for wine since I stopped smoking I really enjoyed a few bottles of casillero del diablo tempranillo that was lovely but in the morning omg did I have gandies flip flop I needed a few cups of coffee to feel normal again I didn't want to move out of bed😊
@@MyWineDiary absolutely i want more and more other type. .. i just want to make up my mind to collect more pinot noir or cabernet sauv. Anyway thank you for your reply.
There are definitely some good affordable Cabs out there! The one that comes to mind is Decoy by Duckhorn, it's under $20 and offers great quality for the money. Make sure to let it breathe or decant it for a while before drinking; it will open up nicely!
Water I don't like water vile stuff I had a couple of bottles of wine last night called the governor I was pissed as a fart this morning good job I didn't have to goto work dry as a nuns doof its really kicking my ass x😊
So Many things here are not right. First of All you cant define a wine by the grape(s) its made of alone. Where its from. Its terroir is just as important. There is a vast difference between and average wine made from Merlot in some country and a top notch st Emilon or Pomerol for instance. Also its completely off to say Syrah doesent age well. In Hermitage and Cote Rotie it most defenetaly does. All the greatest wines and regions comes from France. No country comes close. Number two is Italy.
Wine by definition is fermented grape juice; so all wine will contain alcohol. Exception to that are alcohol-removed wines which you can find in stores. I have two videos that I posted here talking about those; please check them out!
Hi I live in the NE of Scotland ie Peterhead a fishing town on the East Coast.It’s quite cool here so I prefer slightly more robust reds,Syrah ,Cabornay’s ,Durif which tends to come from Australia and is also used in blends also Rioja, Primitevo and many different blends.For me also my mood dictates what I drink also the temperature, when I’m in warmer climates I tend to drink white wine which I love also so many different verities,I prefer a Sauvignon Blanc or a Chenin Blanc,I’m more of a dry win lover from New Zealand or Chile,but hay there are so many wines and regions to choose from. I’m starting to drink more Italian wines also,i like your Napa valley wines,but don’t get too many of those here in the UK The world of wine is enormous and it’s a great journey of discovery?Love your channel keep up the good work 👍
Duncan, thank you for sharing and for your support! I too tend to chose my wine based on my mood and the temperature outside a lot of times! There are so many amazing wines out there and it's a great journey trying them. Cheers!
I think my taste works, pretty much, as you described your own. I am blessed to live in a state that experiences all four very distinct seasons, and temperature does play into my choices, though, not rigidly. I have always been a very light drinker, sometimes having gone months without any at all, so my wine journey is at a virtual snail's pace, compared to most, but when I do partake, I thoroughly enjoy and savor it! I tend to favor the lighter red varieties, too. I have been toying with the idea of trying a malbec, again, but I have been kind of leary of them, since I had a bad experience with some that went off, or bad, a few years ago, with a friend, that had some bottles that been exposed to improper storage temperatures, that were far too warm. If you have ever experienced it, then you know. The only thing that tastes as bad, if not worse, is loose leaf tea, that has been exposed to the same heat treatment. Those are terrible tastes that linger in your nightmares! 😜 I think it is time to put that nightmare to rest with a good malbec, or maybe a shiraz, this time, once I find one. Any suggestions for one?
Thank you so much for sharing! Sorry to hear that you had a bed experience with Malbec; I certainly imagine how bad that lingering taste is! Definitely recommend for you to re-explore those. Argentina's Malbecs are inexpensive. As far as Shiraz goes, try Australian ones for more jammy and spicy flavors & French Syrah for a lighter, yet still incredibly delicious taste! Good luck and enjoy!
I would throw out Cabernet Sauvignon - throw in Nebbiolo, Sangiovese and Grenache. Especially I don‘t like 100 percen Cabernet Sauvignon, blends are way better!
Cabernet sauvignon can be very good an the bolder the better but it must be cold cause a lot of them taste better cold but not all of them Thanks for tips I will have to try the Sarah an in moderation they are good for your health good bye
I want to get a nice wind selection as birthday gifts for a male and female, but I have no idea which ones to buy. Any helpful suggestions?🙂 Great content and your voice is so soothing🥰 Love it!!
I like gifting wines that people can age for a while; something high in tannins and with a full body. A Napa Valley Cabernet, especially a 2014 vintage would make a great gift.
