What type of wine do you drink while watching football?
Personally, my choice gridiron grape of choice would have to be something red and manly like a Shiraz or Cab. I wonder if they make one of those beer helmets for wine... that would be awesome!

Merlot :) -- If you want to stick with Virginia wines Tara's Long Bomb: http://bit.ly/xne4l
Football and the John Wayne of wines - Petite Sirah and ribs.
Look up Terry Hoage Vineyards. Highly acclaimed wines from a former UGA football great.
An ozzie named Quarterback, can't remember who makes it, though a blend of Cab, Mer, Shiraz and one that I again fail to remember... even got the field on the label...
Amen bro, Cabernet Sauvignon! Now, I'd like to see a post dedicated to pairing wines with an assortment of sports:
Football - Cabernet Sauvignon
Golf - Pinot Noir
etc...
That's a great idea! What sport do you think would go well with Merlot? :)
Cheers!
Riesling and Nachos/Chips and Salsa,
Cabernet or Pinot with a good (turkey) burger.
As for my alma matter (TCU! GO FROGS!), its hard to drink anything but a Shiner Bock while watching them!
Here's the full info on the Quarterback, I was too lazy to look it up yesterday, though now when football soon it on, it's about time to get the facts down!
De Lisio Quarterback, De Lisio Wines-Vine Control, South Australia, Barossa Valley, grapes: Syrah 30%, Cabernet Sauvignon 27%, Merlot 22% and Grenache 21%. 16% alc.
Heavy and dark with tones of liquerice and dark, bitter chocalate and a hint of dark sweet ripe berries. Though quite smooth and drinkable, nice one, as I remember it!
Is it okay to admit that I like drinking beer and watching football too? :)
Cheers!
what u need 2 get is the wine bra
What the heck is that? :)
Randy,
It's got to be a sport that doesn't get too much respect in the US, maybe soccer. But then again, I hate soccer and I enjoy a good Merlot. Tennis...
LOL! I think you nailed it.... Tennis- The official sport of Merlot!
What about Chardonnay?
Cheers!
