    I prefer a nice Washington Merlot. It does drink like a Cab. Really.

    White wine gives me reflux.

    Mrs. Throbber v2.0 gets way more horned up with red than white, too.

    It (should be) is widely known that red wine is the gateway to anal. With girls

    Invalid Pole; lacks Abundance.

    Actually, plenty of both I like and don't like.
    Too many diacetyl and oak bomb Chardonnays out there but crisp off-dry Riesling is fantastic. Or fully dry Sauvignon Blanc if not from too cold a climate; don't like feeling like I'm drinking green pepper juice. And a high-quality Tokaji once in a while; yum.

    Good Tempranillo and Malbec and Pinot are special IMO, but some other reds are too savory for me. I love mushrooms and smoked meat, just not in my glass, and "tar and asphalt" are never going to be adjectives describing something I want to put in my mouth. I dilute my meh Syrah about 50/50 with Grenache to get to something I enjoy.
    To each their own.
    Cheers--

    In a vacuum I’d say red, but it definitely depends on what you are going to eat. Wine is the best alcohol to augment a meal, if chosen carefully.

    This is tough to answer. Both can be great and both can be bad.

    I've had kick ass Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Rose, etc. I've also had kick ass Merlot, Pinot Noir, and Syrah.

    On a hot day, I'll take a good dry white, but on a cold day I tend to lean toward reds.

    During lunch and afternoon hours, I like whites, and at dinner I like reds.

    Whites are also great when paired with light pasta, fish, and chicken. Reds go better with heavier pasta and beef.

    I guess abundance?
