The sad part is that it took three hours before someone made a comment about that. 😉

Hell no. I do that while I'm out training on the bike.

I'm all about multitasking. 😀

You're saying white wine is a girly drink? :roll:

Don't deny it; Chardonnay has definitely taken on a feminine appeal. Ask any woman who casually enjoys wine, and she'll likely say she prefers a Chardonnay. I think it's because so many people assume white wine == sweet wine, and that only men prefer dry, tannic, almost offensive wines.

Anyway, it's a stereotype, and it means nothing.

LOL. :beer:🙂
 
I don't care what people think of my drinking preferences. 🙂 My favorite wines are Chardonnays and Zinfandels. I don't like red wine. I also don't like beer and do not drink any beer. When drinking, it's either wine, Mike's Lemonade, or liquor for me. I had a friend teasing me last year that I like the 'girly' drinks. So, I offered to do a shot of Whiskey with him straight up. He declined.

But the best of all is..... RUM! A good Puerto Rican rum... such as Don Q's Gold... is awesome!

I wasn't saying it was; I'm just saying what the common perception is. Just randomly ask someone who prefers white wine why they like Chardonnay (which they will almost certainly say they do), and I promise you they'll say, "because I don't like dry wines!" Most whites aren't completely dry of course, but some are just exceptionally sweet. Some Rieslings taste like I'm biting into an overripened apple, for example.

Anyway, Chardonnay has been the varietal du jour for years now, and I think this is largely the cause. Most people know Cabernet and Chardonnay, and that the difference is ostensibly dry vs. sweet, respectively.

Anyway, it's a stereotype, and it means nothing.

Damnit, I forgot they had a :wine: icon :beer:

Please tell me you're talking about RED zin and not that PINK/WHITE garbage called "zin". I love wine, but that stuff really is a girly drink. Sorry.

Word. Mount Gay + tonic + lime = best summer drink ever.



.....huh huh.....Fausto said "gay".....huuh...huh....

I picked up some of that Mount Gay rum after you suggested it in some other thread (I don't remember the thread). It was good but a little sweeter rum than I was used to. Still keep some around to change my drinks up every now and again though. 🙂

Yep. Kinda how Merlot has become semi-ubiquitous for red wines (which is sad, as it's usually pretty boring).

Cockspur is another on to look for; it's a bit more alkaline than the Mount Gay.


hehe...."gay"....."cock'.....I think Fausto's trying to tell us something....

I'm assuming you mean white zinfandel, which is made from red zinfandel grapes with their skins removed. To each his own, of course, but IMO White Zin is for those who want to like wine but don't. Nothing more than a glorified wine cooler.
