There's plenty of whites that aren't sweet at all - although I doubt I'd mistake a Californian chardonnay for a red, I'd also never describe one as sweet and sticky. For that matter, there's also tons of sweet red wines. I can tell you've never been subjected to a glass of Manischewitz on high holidays. (Lucky you.)
I don't know why the article makes such a big deal about mistaking a red for a white. For example, I could very easily mistake a red lambrusco for a white champagne - they taste pretty similar.
- sliverstorm 13y agoOk, thanks. Yeah, I probably have only been exposed to a small cross-section of reds. I started with merlot and pinot, liked what I had, and haven't felt the need to branch out yet.
- gyardley 13y agoMan, I'm sort of jealous - if you get into wine, you have so many awesome first experiences in front of you! When you want to try more reds, I'd look at some cabernet sauvignons and syrahs.
