This is a big part of why I've shifted to medium to not-quite-high end natural wines, in particular old world.
I always found the mass market wines to be way too oaked and/or sweet for my tastes, and it'd give me headaches. The really nice stuff was too much $$ for me to consume at any regular interval. Stumbled across this niche and it was an epiphany. Obviously not a universal truth but in general I find the stuff I buy now to both taste much better to my palate and not give me headaches. Unless I consume *way* too much, and that's on me.
- cmrdporcupine 3y agoYeah, I just make my own wines these days (from my own home grown grapes). Because while the "quality" is not the same, it's a consistently more "authentic" product and I know everything about it and can appreciate it as my own product; and it's "cheap" (sort of), it's fun.
