1. The fineness of wine is lost on me
I have never enjoyed wine and I guess I never will.

2. Yes indeed. Usually chardonnay or sauvignon blanc.
Hate beer; love the vino. :9

3. I'm more of a beer guy myself. Wine/champagne is for special occasions.
With that meal, though, I think a good merlot or cabernet would be mandatory. *drools*

4. No, I'm not really a wine drinker.
I'll cook with it, but I don't really care for the taste by itself.

5. Wine tastes great
but it's murder on my allergies.

I mostly just look wistfully at it.

6. Nope,
never done so...in my limited experience, of cheapo wine for about 5 bucks, to spendy bottles of 50 bucks or so, those wines I had, were horrid....

7. Don't much care for wine myself.
And as for drinking it with dinner, nope.

I'd prefer milk, water, or Pepsi, depending on what I'm eating.

8. I'm allergic to grapes so I dont normally drink wine to begin with.
I do drink beer though - but it has to be good beer, no cheap shit!

Now that I'm living with relatives again, no.

11. No. Used to drink wine with every meal
Then skipped the meals, kept the wine.
Stopped over 20 years ago.

Miss my bubbly, though, sometimes, but not for long.

13. No. Almost never.
I can count on one hand the amount of times I've done wine with dinner. Beer or rum, on the other hand.....
