Why do supermarkets just stick their wines on the shelf in any order!? I like medium sweet wine and all I could find is dry. I didn’t have the time to spend looking though them all so I settled for 2 bottles of Baileys. Yeah it’s a girlie drink I know but I felt like something different, …I do drink it by the half pint though lol

Well I find it all a bit daunting really, as I don't know much about wine, it's ok if it's just for me 'cos I pick something intuitively and I always like it, but it's when I need to buy wine for someone else, then I haven't a clue 'cos there's like 3 aisles of the stuff!!! I usually go for something by a 'medium' price range to try to be safe Confused I need some daughterly advice on this subject........hmm

I had one single grape vine in my garden years ago, and before my ex pulled it up, I used to give my parents the grapes to make wine. The last years crop made 19 bottles of the stuff Laughing Funny it tasted like sherry, but WOW was it powerful..........I've still got one bottle left ooooooh!
