Viognier for the final white?

Shayne Parkinson · 03-13-2012, 06:01 PM

Yes, that's the one!

Four reds to go.

I should have got that one first time, I drank some Viognier last night. I do like my wine; white more than red as is probably obvious

Zinfandel

Shayne Parkinson · 03-13-2012, 06:50 PM

I believe that's an American grape, Daithi, and therefore not on the list.

Daithi · 03-13-2012, 06:56 PM

Shayne, when the quiz is done can you give us the top four red and three whites? I'm curious what they are -- I'm guessing Red (Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, Merlot) and White (Chardonnay, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc).

I'm also surprised that Pinot Grigio didn't make the white list. Italian?

Shayne Parkinson · 03-13-2012, 07:01 PM

I can do it right now, Daithi (as they're among the ones already answered), and tell you that you're exactly right. Syrah is also on the list of reds.

Pinot gris/grigio is on my personal list.

We go through quite a bit of it.

SneakySnake · 03-13-2012, 07:09 PM

Shiraz?
Merlot?

issybird · 03-13-2012, 07:13 PM

Grenache and tempranillo?

Both correct, but Bilbo got there first.

Grenache, yes; tempranillo no (though it *is* a Spanish noble grape).

Ten points to Bilbo, one to Issybird. Three reds to go. A clue when I've had my lunch (if they're not answered by then).

What can I say, except... no.

What are those, by the way?

Manischewitz = An absolutely vile, but very popular 'Kosher' wine
Welsch's = World's leading grape juice producer. I use it to make my own wine
Thunderbird = One of the world's cheapest bottled wine, popular with street winos who can't afford a can of Sterno... Almost as good as "Hombre," and cheaper than most sodas.
