John;

I believe that I am being robbed in broad daylight of one of life's finer pleasures. No matter how hard I try, I have not been able to develop a taste for wine. Most whites give me a crushing headache within five minutes of ingestion, most reds I find too sweet or the drier wines I find have too much tannin for my taste.

My wife is a wine lover and will drink a fine port till it comes out her ears, has her very own whites that she reserves for special times, but no matter how hard I try, I always end up with a bourbon or single malt scotch in my hand.

Having said all this, there was a California Merlot, that I found when we lived in Florida, and there was a very small vineyard, about 12 acres, tucked up in a little valley about 15 miles from my hometown in PA, which produced a red, they called Country Red, which I really enjoyed. I can find neither here.

We went to a wine tasting several weeks ago, there was nothing I liked out of about dozen and half varieties. I have tasted French, German, Spanish, Italian, Australian, Portuguese, Californian, and most any locale you can throw in.

Maybe a few days in the bush with you will make all the difference!!
