Quick Thoughts -Shopping for wine
9:10 AM
Only in Europe is it possible to get an awesome (and by awesome I mean moderately good, but insanely inexpensive, thus upgrading the taste to wonderful) bottle of wine.
Right before my return to Switzerland, I was in Germany, looking around a supermarket trying to find a bottle of wine to give as thanks to some friends who put us up. I found a red bubbly from Italy called Lambrusco for 3Euro. Now, I couldn't get a 3Euro bottle for some friends when I had absolutely no idea what it tastes like. So I looked around some more for and found a Rojo for them----then bought that Lambrusco for myself! :p
It is a delicious red sparkling wine with it's roots in the Etruscans...apparently they were the first to decide to use the remaining portion of the grape.
It is definitely an easy drinking wine though, and doesn't require a refined palate to enjoy.
