It came out rougher than I meant it and I should've phrased it differently, but good lord, she should've gotten the numerous hints I was dropping.

What kind is it?

Gewurztraminer is generally a sweet white wine, as is traminette. I like going for some of the unconventional wines; chardonnays, merlots, and sauvignons are too numerous and I don't care too much for them.

The funny thing is that she didn't mention being mad on the way home or anything. It was only after we'd been home for awhile that she started pouting.

I haven't tried either. Next time I'm in Atlanta I'll go wine tasting

I'm really enjoying it. There are a few more local wineries we need to check out and then some more in southern Indiana. I think we're pretty well stocked for the holidays at this stage, though I'd like to drink a few bottles soon. The winery we really liked isn't far so we can replenish pretty quickly. The case of wine we bought at the southern Indiana wineries has to last a little longer since we won't be going back for awhile.

Oh, and speaking of drinks -- my wife is going to make her punch for the NYE party again this year. Damn, that is like drinking candy.

I'm realizing my gf have very little in common. She doesn't like wine for one.

Maybe I'm worrying about nothing

My wife got me to like wine. Before her, I was drinking the "popular" stuff like Merlot because it was the hip thing to do, but I didn't really enjoy it. I actually do enjoy these white wines. I seem to like German wines better than French.

Gotta say that sounds gross

I mean "drinking candy" in a good way. It is just way too smooth and you hardly taste the alcohol but it knocks you on your ass. I had 8 cups of it last NYE (with a few beers) and I have large gaps in my memory from that night. :awe:
