tripeace asked:


I wanted to start drinking red wine because I have heard of health benefits. I also want to become more acquainted with red wines. I usually drink white wine. What is a good starter red wine that is not too dry or too sweet?

I have a 29 year old bottle of red wine that was given to me on my wedding day (2 years ago) I have been keeping it in my kitchen as a keepsake, storing it on a window ledge inside. If I opened it, will it be GROSS?

?justme? asked:


I am a complete novice when it comes to wine of any kind, but I have had no trouble finding an inexpensive white wine ($25.00 or less per bottle), but I’m at a loss for red. I don’t like it too sweet, but not really dry either. I’ve been looking for a happy medium with no luck yet. Any suggestions?
So far I am very happy with the price ranges I’m seeing. I was being generous with the $25. Like I said, I’m a complete novice. I can’t wait to start trying these suggestions.
Thank you!

Thanks for the info … have re-read the recipe and it says “robust” red wine. Is that a Merlot?

How long does Alcohol (red wine) stay in system?
Today I drank a little bit of red wine (Not even a cup) just to try it around 1:30pm. I was wondering how long this will show up in my urine and blood because there might be a random drug test soon.

KrazyGlu asked:


I have read that alcohol increases output levels of estrogen among men, in addition, alcohol naturally dehydrates the body.

Now, would the alcohol content in a glass of red wine a night hurt my body’s ability to recover from rigorous exercise? I am lifting and sprinting/running often and wish to be healing appropriately. If I must discard my delicious glass of Pinot Noir or Syrah, then I suppose I will. However, if the effects are marginal, then I will continue.
