NZ Pinot Noir. Specifically Central Otago. Yeah baby.Hi, I like a hearty beer such as Epic Pale Ales. Anything with a truck load of hops. Getting into my wines now also and suggest www.lovewine.co.nz which is a great place to discuss wine or learn more. Aussie Reds, NZ whites!

See if you can find some Askerne 2007 Gewurtz. Or Johanneshof from Marlborough - any year, its always good. Or go to Vinoptima if you can afford it for one of NZ's best.
Then there are the "real" ones from Alsace. Try Gisselbrecht if you can find it, or Lucien Albrecht, or Gustave Lorentz or Domaine Schlumberger....
The Alsace versions have a different back palate to most of the kiwi versions - more citric, less phenolic, which I prefer. But the variety of style is HUGE!
Incidentally, I have a saying about Pinot Gris. Borrowed from John Cleese when he applied it to American Beer...."It's like making love in a canoe...fucking close to water..."
I think Pinot Gris can be just like that...although there are a few around now that have some flavour...

I,ve taken to the Trout Valley Label of late, particurly the Riesling, Savee Sea 06 sauvignon blank is worth getting, its a side lable for another label, though at the moment cant remeber wich one, Hunters Hill label is a second label to Wolf Blass, worth getting.
Pak n Save Petone has some very good wine buys, worth keeping an eye open while shopping.
I tried the Monteths Cider the other day good fresh flavour, though I thought it was a bit exspensive.
Don't forget to bring a towel
Fuck wine, even the smell of it makes me want to spew up. Horrible shit it is indeed.

Dessert wine is goood!
but generally prefer beer
But I have to say I'm a beer gal too, I always find myself having to get up in the night for water after consuming sizable portions of wine

Yes!! Although my brother calls me a peasant, I like sweet bubbles.
Quite a few "posh" wines (with big $ to match) I find too dry, and it's like sipping nail polish remover!

Try the Te Whare Ra gewurtztraminer. You'll not be dissapointed. I can also recommend my favourite wine too in that case. Main Divide reisling. Absolutely gorgeous!

Biggest selling Riesling I have. One of my customers once described it thus..."tastes like summer". I would have to agree.
