Trying to bring white wine into my red wine world
I can relate to the first paragraph in this Boston Globe piece about buying and drinking white wine during the summer. Or any time of year, actually. I'm a big lover of red wines, but white wine just confuses me. It doesn't help that I'm not a big fan of white wine. I don't know what it is, but the very few glasses of white wine I've had in my life, I just haven't liked the taste at all. But maybe that's because I haven't had the right white wine.The Globe gives a lot of tips on what Sauvignon Blancs to buy, and it's good (for me and other people who live in the area anyway) that all of the stores mentioned are local.
So, help me out readers. What white wine would you suggest a newbie like myself should drink?
