Wino
I've been drinking wine all my adult life.
I've drunk great wine and bad wine, I've drunk it vintage and sour- and I've enjoyed it all.
I've never found out what it means for a wine to be "corked" or why it's considered to be so terrible.
I read the labels- and enjoy the poetry of them (hints of violets, etc, etc) then make a snorting noise through my nose.
This probably comes across as inverted snobbery. Well, I suppose it is.
I'm a proper snob about many things- art and literature for instance-, churchmanship, movies- only not about wine.
I just like the taste.
Which is why I'm currently buying the very cheapest stuff from the Co-op.
£6.00 a bottle (give or take the odd 25p)
Plus it's Fairtrade.
