Never really found one i liked until last night when i discovered Jacobs Creek Chardonnay Pinot Noir.. went to Sainsbury's and they don't blooming stock it

Looked online and its £7.48 a bottle

Whilst looking for it there were people asking me what country it was made and if it was dry or sweet.. I was seriously confused.

Are any of you 'wine people' and know your stuff, the ins and outs of it? I think its a grown up thing to be educated in wine rather than my previous thoughts that it was just there so id get d*unk quicker lol.

Whats your tipple of choice?

Jacobs Creek is Australian, although a Chardonnay/Pinot Noir is more commonly French it can also be found amoungst the South African wines

I was referring to wine.

However, I prefer a good pint of real ale over a glass of wine.

And, for the record, I'd drink my own piss before I'd drink Jacobs Creek.

I think the chardonnay bit is so that a number of kids will grow up knowing that the were ever so precious and special.

My son, Theakstones, has just nodded his agreement.

Both Chardonnay and Pinot noir are grape types, both used in the production of Champoo, both can be still wines too.

Is it the bubbles you like

Stay away from the cheap stuff is the best advice. You really do get what you pay for in wine.

Supermarket 1/2 price deals tempt a lot of people, but plonk the are selling 'half price' at £5 is never worth a tenner anywhere.

Having said that you can get stonking wine for under a tenner.

i recon that joining laithwaites wine club isn't a bad deal; we don't seem to get a bad bottle - they generally taste better than the "offer" wines from supermarkets (IMHO). Sadly i'm becoming allergic to red wine (and port! ) and am having to stick with my other love (real ale) which isn't a tragedy I know

If it's red it has to be Shiraz or a nice spicy Rioja. For white a nice Marlborough estate Sauvignon Blanc - crisp and sharp with hints of grapefruit. Ohhhh, my mouth is watering just typing it!

5 years ago, all i'd drink was lambrini

Ok the name of the wine is the nameof the grape it's named after (this is for sassy, so all the rest can stop bullying me for being a know it all) for example

Hardys Pinot noir is a wine made at hardy's vineyard with a grape called the Pinot noir, this grape was developed for the new world to mimic the burgundy grape of France.

Sometimes you will get a mixture of grapes (you may find a bottle that has two or three names of grapes on them)

Red wine is usual classified in terms of "body". Full, medium and White wine is usually classified in sweetness dry, medium sweet and combinations of
