Top Comment: Did you just repost that question replacing coffee with wine?
Reddit can you please answer some questions about wine?
Main Post:
I must confess that I have never tried wine before. I was always under the impression that wine was more of a girly type of drink. I want to experience the taste but I have some questions before I do.
How does the "drunk" feeling compare to other types of alcohol such as liquors and beers?
How would you describe the taste?
What are the most popular types of wine? For example with liquor you have your whiskeys and your rums and with beer you have your lagers and ales.
Is there a reason why wine is served in a special type of glass?
I hear the terms "aged wine" thrown around. Is there a particular reason you want to age wine?
Is the notion that wine is generally consumed with food correct?
Can you recommend a good wine in the $10-20 range that I might be able to find at my local supermarket?

My competitive friend was always insulting my wine, so I tricked him into sampling and insulting his own.

During the pandemic, I started making wines, beers and meads for my friends. At the time, we lived in a country where it was hard to get alcohol and, due to the virus, we were all locked out of our primary supplier for over a year. No one could get alcohol. So, I started brewing again after a 15 year hiatus; $upplying my community, so to say.
Well, it really irked this guy that people would “trade me” things for my wines and meads. It also really drove him nuts that I knew how to malt and basically make beer from feed grain (no home brew supply shops within 2,000 miles).
So, at every opportunity, he was just piss insults on my wine. And yes, it was simple country wine but well crafted using local fruits. Clear. Balanced. Strong. Wappatooie is what we used to call it back home.
His wife would back him up. I always thought this was strange because I was delivering trunk loads of wine to my friends and people would hardly ever touch his wine at parties.
Anyway, we were having a sampling night which is how I met most of my people.
And in front of the whole room full of people he pisses insults over this wine I’d poured.
“Well,” I said, “you made that one. I didn’t want you to feel left out.”
They stayed 5 minutes max and shuffled out.
