...because wine is a perfectly acceptable 7am conversation topic in my mind I know we've discussed this before, but I'm finalizing which wines to open for tomorrow and need some inspiration.

What's your favorite grape varietal?
All-time favorite is Cabernet Franc. Syrah, Grenache and Mourvedre are close contenders.

Is there a specific wine you currently really like?
Current absolute favorite is Novelty Hill Grenache

Varietal or type that you dislike?
Chardonnay and most Merlots, although my uncle's merlot lineup has won a ton of awards and his are actually really good.

All time favorites are Zinfandels (red not white), Syrahs and blends. For whites I prefer Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand.

Sme of my favorite brands are Apothic, Evolution, conundrum, & Ravenswood.

What's your favorite grape varietal?
reds blend together to me, and i have no real preference..i usually go for merlot or cab sauv. whites though, i prefer spumante or muscat

Is there a specific wine you currently really like?
no, i'm a cheap date. whatever's available is good.

Varietal or type that you dislike?
i haven't come across anything i really don't like. but in general chardonnay isn't my favorite, but i'll still drink it if it's available.

Favorite?
I'm a non-discriminating wine drinker. Seriously, I haven't met a type of red I don't like. I prefer reds over whites though, but I'll happily drink white if that's all there is.

Least fav wine? I'm a lush and I'll drink it all. Well, no, I take that back, I'm not a fan of tj's $2 chuck. I can't get that down, but I'll cook with it.

Specific wine?
I'm really digging this tempranillo from ergo (~$10 at total wine, ~$14 at wf) it a big robust red. We buy muplitple bottles of that and its our go to mid week wine. Also, I randomly just pick up a cheap (~$8) bottle at total wine called herding cats. That was surprisingly really good. For a splurge I love anything from jordan vineyards ($40+)

Favorite - Mmm Cab Sauv. I have yet to have a Cab Sauv that I do not like. I'm a big red drinker.

Wine I really like - Anything red by Two Mountain and Portteus in Zillah. Portteus has an Old Vine Zin that is seriously amazing. My mouth is watering thinking about it.

Varietal I dislike - I'm not so much a fan of whites like Chardonnay. With reds I feel they are super smooth and with whites, I don't know the way to describe it. Too shocking of a taste.

What's your favorite grape varietal?
I like moscatos for whites and pino noir for reds.

Is there a specific wine you currently really like?
Some would consider it a dessert wine, but my favorite is moscato d'asti.

Varietal or type that you dislike?
I hate chardonnays or especially oaky/bitter whites. I'm just okay with reds, but don't like the overly bitter/dry reds.

What's your favorite grape varietal? Cabernet Sauvignon for red and Pinot Grigio for white.

Is there a specific wine you currently really like? I typically love the Kestrel Drop Dead Red blend. It's Beaujolais Nouveau season so need to get a bottle or two of that in my belly before season is over! Whenever I get a wine flight at Purple, my choice is the "Bold and Beautiful" (although they've renamed that). I love DRY roses in the summer.

Varietal or type that you dislike? I have yet to taste a Chianti or Montepulciano that I found drinkable.
