Any Red Wine drinkers out there?

Ooooo- I've had that! Good one. And speaking of blends- Black Opal has a good cabernet/merlot blend, but that might be something you'd try later on.
 
As someone who enjoys sweet whites, I am also looking for a good non-dry red that I would enjoy drinking. My fave whites are the German Rieslings, but I also enjoy the local winery riesling as well.

Shriraz was too dry for me; I do not like anything that tastes like wood or a forest!

So when we talk of Merlot, Cabs, and whatever else has been mentioned what distinguishes one from the other?
 
MY RECOMMENDATION IS PINK CATAWBA by MYERS..........if you don't like dry, this is a happy medium. Its not too sweet or too dry. I drink it for two reasons: (1) heart, and (2)poison ivy control. I am highly alergic to poison ivy and a farmer told me 10 years ago if I drank a glass of red wine every day, I would never get poison ivy. Since I started drinking this wine, I have never broken out with poison ivy again.

It is not expensive........around $7.00 - $8.00 bottle depending on the area. Try it, I think you'll like it!

Was JUST going to recommend that! I live in Northern NY if you can find Bully Hill wines, St Lawrence Red or any of the Rivermyst wines you'll love them. I AM a wine snob and I still enjoy these, great taste, fruitier than I usually like but they also are an awesome deal at like 8 bucks a bottle.

Yup, love the Bully Hill table red, sweet, fruity and just plain good to drink!

So it doesn't have to be a RED wine to be heart healthy?

Red wine has resveratrol. Supposed to be good for the heart.
