Are you red, or are you white?

I'm red, mellow, and smooth - not too acidic

What is your favorite Pinot Noir Kate? I think Pinot Noir is my favorite type of wine so I've been trying to try a different bottle whenever the current one is empty!

I am red, almost exclusively. I do enjoy Sauvignon Blanc when it's really hot out, but otherwise I stick to Pinot Noir or a good northern Italian.

Definitely Red! My favorite (A big Tuscan Nugola Vecchia) has become hard to find in the last few weeks. We actually bought up all the partial cases that the local liquor stores had - and now they're gone, so I'm exploring some new reds. I'll be sure to post what I think here. I added the Face Book app "Cork Savvy", but find it a bit lacking - does anyone have any recommendations for an app to record and share wines with friends?

Whatever you have! Actually, I used to only drink red (preferably a bit dry, spicy and lightly oaked Zinfandel or Syrah) but when I started working in the wine industry, I realized there is a time and place for EVERY wine and that white wines can be good :) I prefer them light, fruity and more to the sweet side of the dry/sweet spectrum - kind of the opposite of what I prefer in reds...

I love a sweet white, typicaly a nice German Reisling. I lived in Germany for 5 years and fell in love with the wines. I would like to learn more about red. I don't like dry so any suggestions would be appreciated. House Jam is the only sweet red I have found.

I used to strictly be a white wine drinker, but my brother owned a wine shop and introduced me to some wonderful reds - so now I love both, but do lean more towards the reds. Last year I started making my own wine from the grape vines and apple tree in our backyard, and they turned out so well I've planted cherry trees and other fruit trees to experiment with some other unique wines in the future... ;)

I'm straight up pink ROSE. (I love how it's 7:54am and I'm thinking about it) but I LOVE dry rose. It goes with everything...looks sweet but isn't.
My favorite is Victories Rose.
My favorite grocery store bottle is french house rose. You can get it at Shaw's and I recommend it for holiday meals & daytime toasts.

In short, a good ROSE is perfect for those of us who (on occasion) believe happy hour starts at lunch.

Love both...but prefer whites in warm weather and red when it is cool outside :) Love Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, Merlot and Shiraz...

Definitely both. I love big, bite-you-back reds, pretty much any zin or cab from Chile, though my favorite zin is Cacophony from Toad Hollow. Chards for white, Hess, Chateau Ste Michelle, Coppola. Though I do enjoy the Evolution out of the Columbia River Valley (totally blanking on the vineyard, sorry to whomever it is).
