So... I was just sitting here and sipping my red wine, and it made me wonder... Which do you guys here on sg prefer? :)


I looove red wine!! But I can't really stand white wine (or champagne for that matter).. Therefore we shall listen to: UB40 - Red Red Wine (plus it's the only wine song I can think of on top of my head =P)

Red wine <33 ♥‿♥
White wine <33 ♥‿♥
Both of them taste delicious! ٩(⁎❛ᴗ❛⁎)۶
I'm more into wine such as Rosé wine! 。◕‿◕。
Yuuck, none of them!! ┻━┻ ︵ヽ(`Д´)ノ︵ ┻━┻
I don't drink alcohol.. (︺︹︺)
I'm not old enough to drink... (ಥ﹏ಥ)

Love them both, though it's mostly seasonal for me. With some exceptions, I drink white wine in the summer, red wine in winter. I also enjoy the occasional rose and champagne (or similar).

White for cooking, red for drinking. Sangría :D (Obviously a good wine is not used for making a sangría)

I'm more of a Vodka person myself, but white wine does the trick too! Red wine and me just don't get along :(

So wrong.
red can go with fish or pasta, and white can go with a lamb burger easily. depends on the wine and dish.

·Chardonnay (white) for dishes with cream sauces, cheese, shellfish
·Sauvignon Blanc(white) for light foods, fish, chicken; good cocktail wine.
·Riesling or Geverztraminer (white) sweeter wine, cocktail, desert, light fare
·Pinot Noir - Red wine, goes with moderate to heavy foods
·Zinfandel - Red wine, pizza, pastas, red meats
·Merlot - Red wine, beef, pork, lamb
·Cabernet - Red wine, the utlimate steak wine
·Syrah - Red wine, BBQ red meats

I agree on some, and disagree on others, but it all depends on the year and vinared.
anyway, if you obviously understand wine, why did you go very lite in the first comment?

a good Chardonnay can go with steaks made with cream sauce, very nice.
and a light Syrah can accompany Pasta dishes superbly, even the simple sauce ones... try it.

Beer :D:

I don't drink wine, I don't like it's taste. But I use a lot of white wine reduction in my cooking, so I guess I'll go with white wine :>

so, i used to only drink white wine (yeah, i know). but after several years i'm a fan of both.
Whites: Mostly Zinfandel but depends on the vineyard
Reds: a lot, my favorite currently is Malbec or Pinot Noir. sometimes the good Merlo's (some are so horrible, it really depends).
i even drink Rose on occasions. can't stand bubbly wine, i feel ripped off. haven't had proper real champagne yet, so maybe i'll like it

i usually have 6-7 wines on standby, but can't find the latest picture. i'll take one later and post it :)

Beer > Wine ;-)

I prefer red wine over white one. Why? Two reasons:

  1. It goes well with steak. Delicious!
  2. Mulled wine. But I prefer the German word for it - Glühwein. It sounds tastier that way :)
    But beer will always be on top list for me :)

As I love to eat meat, I prefer red wine, as it's much more suitable for this kind of food :)

Only alcohol I can drink is beer, didn't like anything else I tried (wine, whisky, vodka, rum, slivovitz, etc... I had a sip of most of alcohol drink types.)

I don't drink much alcohol but when I do it's beer. I also like some drinks, mostly milk-based ones that cover up the taste of alcohol. Hot chocolate with rum can be good as well. Then there's some alcoholic energy drinks I like. If I had to choose between red and white wine I would choose white since I specifically dislike the taste of red wine.

I drink white, rosé or red depending on what I'm eating (and whether it's beef, chicken, fish, lentils, etc is largely irrelevant, it matters more how it's cooked, the sauce, what mood I'm in, etc.). I eat a lot of spicy foods, so the wines I drink have to stand up to that.

I'm more fussy about my reds (prefer big black reds with high alcohol content, the Aussies make some damn good ones!). For whites, the drier the better for me (pinot grigio is my fallback, but they vary widely so I have a few brands I usually stick to), and the only white I really don't like is chardonnay (unless it's unoaked, then I often enjoy it a lot!). A rosé often makes a nice summer lunch choice, perhaps with ice if it's hot (very rare here!).

I have some "strange" food/wine choices, such as reisling with a Chinese takeaway!
