- Cheers 2 Wine I -

Cheers! I'm sure everybody has come across before this, 'Cheers'. It's actually a slang of 'Thank you' ( in England as different countries use it in different manners ). 'Cheers' is always being used or related to drinks and one of those, is Wine. Well, I would like to share some of my little knowledge about Wine with you all. Hope you all like it ( as i do ).

Most of da time, I would like to turn on da tv and turn it to AFC ( Asian Food Channel in Astro ) or any food tv programs as I enjoy seeking for all-time great foods very much. Wine, flattering me lots. Wine was originated from Greece since da late Neolithic period with domestic cultivation. In that time, Wine was treated as safer drinks than water since water bred diseases in past ages ( alcohol kills bugs! ). Dionysus, da Greek God of wine, also play a part of influence in their belief too. Some people believe that Wine was important because it was something soldiers and sailors could carry with them without having to worry about spoilage and pollution. Till then, tda domestic cultivation became widespread to everywhere in the world.

Wine has a lot of categories but I would like to pick up one of it to be discussed here, that's After-dinner Wine. After-dinner wines are usually sweet wines like sherry, brandy, and ports. Dessert wines, as some call them,are becoming more popular again, they really capture da mood of da party season. Wines basically has 2 type, which is red wine and white wine.
Red wine likes Barbera ( Bar-ber-uh ), Merlot ( Mare-lo ), Zinfandel ( Zin-fan-del ) and so on are community favourites. Barbera is an italian wine and often serve together with tomato based pasta dishes. Merlot originates from Bordeaux in France and best serve with poultry and grilled meats, but these types of wines actually goes well with most da foods. Croatia-wine, Zinfandel is da type of red wine is wonderful with steaks, grilled meats, and tomato based dishes.
On da other hand, White wine such as Chardonnay ( Shar-doe-nay ), Gewürztraminer ( Gah-vurtz-tra-meener ) and so on are the favourite picks. Perhaps, white wines are not so familiar to some people. Chardonnay is originated from France and goes well with chicken, seafood and fish. Gewürztraminer is also another France wine which serves well with spicy Asian dishes and pork sausages. Some of da white wine not suitable for drinking but cooking. Be careful with that.

In short, wine is just like dessert after meal. You have to pick one of the million that suit your taste as some people like heavy taste but I prefer lighter taste. Light tasted wines will be da best suit as after-dinner wines. In order to test da quality of da wine, it isn't depends on how long it have been preserved but da smoothness of da liquid inside your mouth. Don't forget to have a light roll on glass as it helps to oxidize da molecules of wine to have da best taste of wine. I have just share with you some of the wines that I have been tasted before ( because my mum is a wine lover ). I would be happy if you can introduce more about wines to me. Don't forget to pick me up for a drink, kays.
