What is a good wine if you don't like wine and would like to acquire a taste for it?

I've heard that wine is an acquired taste. I don't like it, but I love the idea of having a glass of wine with my husband at night after we put the kids to bed. Plus it would be nice to go to a restaurant and always be able to order the drink you like. What is a good wine to get started if you want to acquire a taste for wine?|||I would start with a sweet white wine, like a Riesling or Gewurztraminer. Like beer, I would say that wine is an acquired taste, and starting sweet makes for an easier transition. But, wine is not all that expensive. Go out and buy 3-4 bottles of inexpensive wine that has been rated well (or ask the outlet for recommendations), and see what you like best. You'll never know without trying a number of different wines, and that will get you one step closer to acquiring that taste. I've had good luck asking similar questions on WineMcGee - they have a section dedicated to wine questions and answers like this.|||I enjoy drinking red wine.

I suggest going to a winery or other wine tasting place and try out a variety.


Also wine tastes different depending on what you have with it. I like a white wine with fruit and crackers and red wine with chocolate. But everyone' s taste buds are different.|||some basics notes.


you need your tongue get used to tannins (start with unsweetened dark teas)


aerate the wine first


especially if it's an older wine


start with white, try riesling with chinese food, a decent bottle is only round $10, or simple creamy chard probably around $18


heavy meats would more or like require deeper red wine cabs, bordeauxs, zins,


pinots with pastas or heavier sea food dishes





and if you really want to hone your tastebuds, stick with pinot, since it's probably more complex|||My two articles have excellent suggestions to learn more about wine:
