What wine should i buy my mom?
So im not a drinker at all and thought a nice wine would be a great present, so which one do you recommend?
Answers:
Bah-if you think you're mom would like a bottle of wine, then buy her one.
It depends on what other beverages she likes. If she tends to prefer sugary drinks like soda and juice she will probably prefer a sweeter wine, such as a dessert wine or Concord wine. Other sweet varietals available in the US include Niagara (white) ad Catawba (can be pink or white) and several others.
If she tends to shy away from sweet beverages, then go for a lighter wine. If she isn't a big wine drinker I would stay away from most red wine, especially the heavier ones. She could get a headache from the sulfates often present in the wine, and probably won't enjoy a heavy red wine right off the bat in any case.
Italian and Spanish wines tend to be very good for the price.
White Zin is almost a dirty phrase in the wine-drinking community, so if you ask a salesperson at a good wine shop, don't be surprised if they don't recommend it.
And Always Remember: the definition of a good wine is "A wine I like to drink".
