Red or White?

What do you like most, red wine or white wine?

In sales, whites still lead, but reds are catching up. However, I'll bet that in this group, the answer will be "yes," to any color wine, so long as it is well made.

How do you explain that well over 3/4 of world production is red?

It is easier to make a good red than a good white... Anders

Whites, I suppose - at least I tend to be less choosy about whites than reds.

The one that goes best with whatever I'm eating.

Whichever is set in front of me ;-)

The last sales figures that I saw listed white wine at 58%, with reds an obvious second, followed very far down by rose. IIRC this was not just for US, but for the world. If your figures are correct, then either the data that I saw was incorrect, or there is a LOT of unsold red wine! I'm hoping for the latter, so the price on '00 Bordeaux will fall drastically .

Salut/Hi Manda,

It all depends upon what I'm eating and what I feel like at the time. It's a bit like asking whether you prefer chicken or beef. What _I_ may prefer should have no influence on what you prefer and vice-versa, and really, it shouldn't really interest you much as my reasons for liking it may have nothing to do with what your experience may lead you to like.

Yes!
