1. I'm not as much for white wines as I am for reds...
but I'd say the sauvignon blanc.

Sauvignon Blanc....
I find many Chardonnays too fruity. Although I wouldn't turn down a glass. Or 2.

And White Merlot sounds as bad as White Zinfandel. I'm tired of bartenders being surprised that there's a "Red Zinfandel."

26. Zinfandel is probably my favorite red....
And there are some fine "pink" wines--refreshing & not sweet at all.

There is NO excuse for White Zin!

24. Chardonnay is boring. Sauvignon, Vognier, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Grigio, Fume,
Pouilly-Fuisse.

or Boone's Farm.
