Sweet wine

Well, I've done my chores for the evening and I've opened a bottle of wine. This one tastes nice and sweet. An Italian Rose. Rich, leaving a pleasant tang of grapes. There are no peas in this one.

Well, we make our own at my bar, (there's a Mexican restaurant attached to it) so no, unless you're in the mood to make some. Just make sure you're paying more for it than you would a gallon of milk. Otherwise you'll end up with garbage.

I buy quality wine from a wine merchant, definitely more expensive than a gallon of milk (without the rum or brandy). I usually succomb in the heat of summer. I have made the odd exception, but carefully. It's very moreish.

Good, then he can direct you to a good sangria. Nice thing about sangria is, it's a red wine that can be drunk cold. Add some fruit to the bottom of the glass, and you've got a great summer time refresher.

Well, it's a bit more than a red wine, and can be a rose if preferred. Brandy, or rum, is usually added too. I prefer sweet exotic (nearly wrote erotic) fruit in mine such as kiwi.

At this rate, I'm going to craving for one.

You DO know your wine! If I drank I would have to try that kiwi in the glass. It sounds heavenly.
