Not into cheese and wine though. I know it's a massive thing in the tory world but doesn't do it for me.

Australian Shiraz for me.

Billy Dean · August 16, 2017

Malbec, Rioja and Cabernet for me. Keeps me awake all night and gives me a royal hangover but fuk it it's boss

Valpolicella Ripasso
Amarone if it is with rich food

Wine's a bit hit or miss. Generally, I'd say that the more you spend the better you get, especially in the supermarket. I wouldn't go by the grape.

Some absolute biblical hangovers after drinking the stuff.

Drink a good quality red mate = hardly any hangover.

My missus was a member of that Laithwaite's wines, used to get a really nice wine from them called 'The black stump Durif shiraz' from Australia.

The only one I really enjoy which doesn't give me a hangover is Chianti, the best one of which is from LIDL

In my younger days we used to drink red wine, it was sold in a local bar from a barrel and you provided your own bottle. Moved on to Vine Leaf and then Mundies. Once my mates and I started work we progressed to the beer.
Now I have a few too many miles on the clock I have moved back to red wine, a slightly better quality.
Here in this part of Northern Ireland Buckfast is known as Lurgan champagne.

I Like a red wine, Spanish is my favourite, reminds me of Sunday lunch at My Grand parents, roast lamb and a little red wine for sipping

I do enjoy a nice bottle of red

It's the only red thing I like!

Feeling it today after the Merlot last night. Don't like red wine anymore.

At the moment it's Shiraz. Any wine has to be above 13% and if it's see through it's no good. It has to be chock full of tannin's and preferably aged well and in oak.

I'm quite happy with any glass of red in my hand, but a quality Valpolicella Ripasso or Amarone if I'm feeling extremely decadent is very hard to beat.

Like a nice Rioja (or Tempranillo).

More likely to go for a Guinness or an ale but find red wine less acidy compared to whites (unless it is fizzy and goes pop when opened) on the old guts these days...
