What's a good dry wine. I usually have 4 oz of Chianti or Merlot every
night. What's some other good wines? How do you tell if it's dry or not,
they seldom say on the bottle.

You in the States, Claude? - the language divides us as usual... but I
enjoy tempranillo, merlot, shiraz grape varieties and blends thereof.
IMO, the only good red wine is a dry one... there's some brilliant big
reds coming from Chile and Argentina these days.

Hi,

I, too, have a glass of dry red wine before bedtime. I usually drink
Chianti or Pinot Noir, if I can find an inexpensive California pinot. Also
good are most Cabernet Sauvignons, and recently I have done well with
Italian Asti di Barbera and Portuguese wines, which are very inexpensive in
the US. The Italian and Portuguese wines will often say "dry red table wine"
on the label.

Good luck,

Jay
