I have to admit chaps I ventured down the path to oblivion. Knowing all but nothing about wine other than it seems to be surrounded by a cloak of pretention and overprice.and is fermented Grapes. I ordered 10 bottles of a mixed type that I found interesting (well liked the look of the labels!) from the local (500yds away) wine merchant "wines of inerest" delivered 09:30 next morning free of charge.
 And studiously avoiding pretentious sniffing and glass swirling have been trying them out.

My main conclusions are, that Beer is better,  Price does not equal quality, " New world wines" are often tastier than European, and 13.5% means caution is reqiured.
Bit off topic I know but we are in strange times.
