# Most people that don't know about wine tend to go for the stuff that's advertised,
Like Lindermans ect.. which without a doubt is trully terrible, my advice for a cheep one is just go for the supermarket home brand, go for a South american merlot or australian Shiraz, it's not going to be the best, but cheap and perfectly acceptable, and drink it while eating a pizza or Indian, that should make you fall in love with it..

# This is probably my downfall.
I couldn't really name the wines I've tried. I think I may have liked one, but can't remember the name for the life of me.
I'll take your advice and give it a go when I next get the chance. ^^

# Like I said, top tip is supermarket own......
it's all genericly poor, but also genericly very acceptable, they don't want their name on something undrinkable if that makes sence :-)

# Don't know an awful lot about wine, but what I do know is, it can be very cheap.
It'd probably be more economically sound for me to give it a go sometime.

# My friend taught me the perfec way to choose the perfect wine;
Look for the three Ps-
Number 1: Price
Number 2: Percentage proof
Number 3: Picture (this is usually the tie-breaker).
