No, never had one
Alt: I drink beer not wine. This does not concern me, nor should it you.

Well that killed that dead then.

I don't
But I have to either bring my own drinks or get my sister to go out specially, also wine seems to be the default with a meal and I'd generally rather drink water. Very occasionally I'm in the mood and I've discovered that really quite expensive wine is quite nice, but mostly it's like drinking vinegar for me.

There is something wrong with the wine you are drinking then
Origin of the word vinegar:
Middle English: from Old French vyn egre, based on Latin vinum 'wine' + acer 'sour'

Well that'll be pretty much all cheapish wines then.
I have found that when you get into the £20 a bottle range they are nicer, but not enough to justify the price.

Depends what it is being served with too
Serve it with the wrong food and you can ruin the wine.
I think Stunned knows more about this sort of thing...

It's true
Syrah tastes like pickled cabbage if you drink it on its own; if you drink it with food it tastes of berries. It's bizarre.

Other wines are similar but less obvious.

I feel your pain
I can't drink wine at home as my mothers palate/taste in wine is appalling. How she stomachs such utter piss I will never know.
