Anyone who drinks wine ever tried a bottle of Yellow Tail? It's pretty good stuff. Very dark reds, and I'm not sure if they make any whites but I'm pleased and surprised I can type as well as I can.

It's pretty good stuff, we serve it at the place I work. They do have a chardonnay and a pinot grigio but I like reds more than white, and the merlot or cabernet is pretty good.

A buddy of mine at school loves the stuff. He has a glass almost every night. I want to try it sometime.

My room mate's frat did the 'Tour De Franzia' last night where they raced in drinking a bag of wine. He came back and puked in his bed then slept in it.

Boxed wine is sure classy...
I like wine in small amounts, I come from a big wine drinking family but i've never been able to sit down and drink more than one glass. The stuff coming from our region (niagara falls region) is some of the best wine in the world. A lot of high quality wine is made only a town or two over. |

I've never had a taste for red wines.
I like white wines like Piesporter and Gewürztraminer. |

Same. My dad and my stepmom drink wine almost exclusively. They won't drink beer at all, but thats all I really drink. I don't really enjoy drinking wine except at dinner. |

Keep an eye out in the paper for Wine Tasting parties, they're kind of expensive, but they can be a lot of fun.

I've been to a couple of those. I was thinking of perhaps going to one while in California at the end of this month but I wont necessarily be in 'wine country' while i'm down there.

My sister is always stocked with Yellow Tail. I can't stand the stuff. White only for me.

Yellow Tail is pretty good stuff, and for the price it is outright amazing. And for all the box snobs - while most wine served in boxes in the US is pretty atrocious, boxes are slowly catching on around the world, particularly in Australia, where several major wineries are experimenting with boxes, twist-caps, and other tradition-violating innovations. Go Aussies! |

I don't think i've ever even seen boxed wine before. Probably more of an american thing than anything.
Tell me that doesn't look rednecked... It's not how wine was meant to be and puts a bad image on the whole thing. How people could stand drinking wine to get drunk is beyond me. |
