i like red wines from burgundy.
there are some lovely malbecs as well, but it's also the case that many taste like parker-wines, so like crappy california reds.

like burgundies that are a little earthy and that have a long flavor to them---one that changes as it moves through your mouth and that has a bit of an aftertaste--cali wines tend to go HI THERE and disappear. thin and overpriced. though i'm willing to do fieldwork and be proven wrong.

i'm not sure that i'm smart enough for good bordeaux yet. i'm working my way toward them.


o yeah---i like la veuve cliquot for champagne.
i've had their millésimé and it's tremendous.
but it's kinda a pain to find and it's alot of money.
a regular bottle of the widow is about 40.00
you want to drink enough so that the old lady smiles.
