Old Crones & Snapping Turtles

It seems there is a need for an independent 'as titled' thread.

 

Can we share, say what we would like to say, think what we want to think, even be nice to each other (optional)

 

(Without religion or politics) (please)(pretty please).

 

Think I come under the Old Crone bit.

Rieslings range from dry to sweet, the label will help in stating where it lies. Sauternes are French whites that are very sweet, dessert wines.

I have a sweet tooth as well, but sweet, fruity wines are really not that nice imo. They leave a nasty cloying taste in the mouth.
Re white wines, for what it's worth I would recommend starting with riesling then move onto a Pinot Gris or chardonnay and then to Sauvignon Blanc/semilion Sauvignon Blanc.
A good dry white wine is a thing of great beauty 😄

Rabbitearbandicoot likes Cointreau and Baileys, together. That would be very sweet. I am not into pure Merlots or sweet whites either. Sauternes can be lovely. Then there's bubbles...Australian ones are sweeeeet, except Chandon. Which is made along French lines and has more ... Depth

Speaking of sweet teeth. I think there's a block of chocolate in the pantry that needs my attention

I don't know anything about wine - red or white - have been a Southern Comfort man all my life plus the odd licquer. 

 

Ah rabbit, I knew I liked you.  I, too, am a Southern Comfort lover.

 

I like to drink a Moscato.   Preferably Brown Brothers.

 

There are those that say it is a dessert wine, but I always like a glass

or two with my dinner.

"a Southern Comfort lover" - well, depends on how many I've had actually
