I've realised since I stopped drinking, that when I do drink I prefer red wine to white and rose, which is odd as I never used to be able to drink it.
I'm thinking of treating myself to a mini bottle for Christmas eve and also to a bottle for new years possibly as we'll be at my boyfriends house and she usually buys me rose as that's what I usually drink, so if I'm going to have wine I'd like red but don't want to ask her to buy it as I don't think she likes it so wouldn't expect her to go out of her way to get some in just for me.
Anyway, as I've never drank it before I don't really know what a good red it, I don't want to spend too much on it, but I also want to enjoy it. I don't like it too dry but I'm happy to drink it with a glass of water as well (can't believe I'm saying this I've always laughed at my mum and her partner when they drink red wine and need to have water with it as well)
