Red.
If it's stored in a wooden container, chemical reactions can create flavors that you wouldn't think were from grapes. While I can usually pick them up, I'm going to be more concerned with whether or not it actually tastes good. Because if it doesn't, it's just going to get used for marinating steaks or something.

It all depends on how I'm feeling. White is for celebration, red is when I'm overworked. They both compliment my mood quite well. Though I'm not a wine drinker. I usually don't even bother taking it out of the bag before the cork is gone and I'm hobo chugging.
Ah, true, I forgot about cherry wine, dandelion wine (which is weird, but surprisingly tasty), plum wine (although that's a mixed drink in some cases) and other.Snowalker said:
Of course, you can make wine from pretty much anything that contains sugar. Mead is basically honey wine after all.
The snobbish taste-stuff-in-wine people usually only violate grape wines, though, so I stand by my accusation ^^
I do prefer red. Usually full bodied such as a good cabernet sauvignon, merlot or shiraz. I also have a soft spot for the Campo Viejo Rioja. Where white is concerned, I do like it with white meat and fish but I'm not a fan of dry whites like pinot grigio (although I expect a very good one would be quite nice). I do like chardonnay. Aside from that a white zinfandel or Mateus rose is very nice on a summer's evening.
Fuck wine!
I find wine to be the foulest tasting of all the alcohols. I'd rather drink beer. Beer!

White, because some red wines I seem to have an allergic reaction to (nothing severe, or never was when I drunk red).
Even if I did drink red, I'd prolly have white anyway by choice most of the time.
If it's a free choice of booze, then I'll take an ale, ta.

I used to like only white when I was younger. Now I prefer red, a lot more. Rose's not bad either.
Those who drink wine, aren't all that snobby. That's a stereotype from a 1950's movie or something. It's probably one of the most used drinks of mankind.
What I've noticed a lot lately, are men who are snobby about whisky. Really.

I enjoy both kinds. I have drank more white wine than red though because my family enjoys that more. I have found by mixing certain red and white wines together in the right amounts you get an amazing flavor. What happens it tones down sharpness of red and leaves a sweet aftertaste with the white.
Yes, I see no problem there... (now)Purple Shrimp said:
No matter how good I get with using the English language, I'm still not on best terms with some things. The grapefruit/grape dilemma is one of them. Partly because of my mother tongue, where grape=grapefruit and grapes have a completely different term altogether.
