Crouchen Reisling is possibly my least favourite wine in the world and also Martini, I can't drink sweet wine. Crouchen seems to be one that young women like a lot.

It's cause I grew up on homemade Italian wine so as a kid I always had it at dinner with lemonade. A good heavy homemade tends to be sweet generally.

WHat do you mean by that?

There are a heap of calories in one glass of wine, its something like 100 calories and a serving.

That sounds delicious Patchoo.   

I am trying to learn to cook with wine, any tips? 

I'm not a wine drinker, I really like a good red but only do that a couple of times a year.

My first job was working for James Halliday and he used to come into the kitchen and spit wine down the sink every morning lol

I didn't get it

I love mead. Particularly if it's been 'cooking' for a few hours so gets really gooey.

Mistake. I'm thinking of mulled wine. I have no idea what mead tastes like lol!

We once cooked up a whole heap of mulled wine from some bottles of red that had gone off in the shed.  Boy that was good (I think )
