Red or White wine?

Red or white wine? White wine is definitely my preferred wine. When drinking white wine I really am a traditionalist, whenever I have fish I have a glass of white wine. However, I do have a glass when I have meat as well, which is traditionally supposed to be red. I find red wine far too bitter, dry and harsh. I have never enjoyed drinking red wine.  

I am definitely a cocktail girl. A good Martini, Cosmopolitan or Margarita are perfect for my night out. The prices for cocktails these days are far too expensive though. I understand that they need to include about two spirits (as more than 4 is illegal in England) it is still far too much for a dinner. When eating a paella I always enjoy a good Margarita, however when spending about £12 on a paella then £6 on a Margarita just brings the prices up to a ridiculous amount of money. It then always makes me feel guilty if someone is buying the food for me because I don’t feel like I can have a drink with my dinner. The prices for wine are so much cheaper, it is obscene. £3 for a glass of wine sounds so much better than the price of cocktails. 

Oh, just noticed my second glass of wine is empty, on to the next...
