I'm not a wine expert, and I don't play on on TV, but I like certain wines. Rhine wine has always been my absolute favorite. Served cold, it is the best with a feast like Thanksgiving and Christmas. We found a plum wine near our cabin in Wisconsin that is superb with the ham Easter feasts. Last Easter we brought a case of this to a family Easter feast and there wasn't a drop left after dinner. Then, of course, there are the old classics, Wild Irish Rose, MD 20/20, Ripple, Boone's Farm, and the old standard Kickin' Chicken (99 cents a half a gallon).

Hell, I'm a beer drinker, and a bourbon every once and a while. They can keep their snooty scotch, I'll take a American bourbon every time. A good vodka martini will light my fire as well.

Having been in Europe I can tell you that I found the french wine less to my taste than German, Spanish, and Italian wines. They really kind of sucked. There is an interesting thing about Cognac. After WWII the Germans started making Cognac and they do it better than the french. That really pissed off the frogs. If you want good American Cognac Wisconsin is the place to go.
