Saw a LeelaxFry video of Futurama with this song and it made me cry :O

I think that’s the point of a cover.

Yeah . . . .
So you’re just into pissing money away and you have none left to hire true winemakers and grape growers, so you turned to Yahoo Answers to get your 3 paragraph crash course?? In that case, I just cloned a dinosaur in my kitchen . . . . Woo Hoo!
What happened to your Cambridge acceptance to get a law degree and your other promising future as a doctor???
I call B.S. on this one!

Pick up a nice cheap sauvignon blanc. It's crisp and light. Unlike chardonnay which is too oaky and buttery for me now. Not unless you want your chicken dish to taste like you dipped it in a vat of butter! Hee. Other good light choices are pinot gris or pinot grigio.

An old wine buff once told me that the best wine is quite simply the wine you like best. There are no rules for which wine to drink with what although of course common sense does suggest that a sweet dessert wine does not go well with fish, but it is at the discretion of the consumer at the end of the day.
I would say that wines between 12-max18% proof are good with meals, more than 18% they become too strong and overpowering, more like ports and sherries and not so great with food. Port and stilton are a good combination however. Anything less than 12% does not have much body and becomes watery.
Another thing to take into consideration is the vintage. Different years may be good and bad, always worth checking up. Some wines do not mature well either, for example South African reds are not worth keeping more than about 2-3 years, whereas French reds can keep for decades…
I prefer red wines, a chianti Collina Lucchese San Giorgio is a good one for example and also Aglianico. I don't like Italian primitivo as it is too strong and has a bad aftertaste in my opinion. I am not keen on Italian white wines, either sickly sweet or like acid. A good German white on the other hand is another question. I also like South African wines although they tend to give me asthma for some reason, a pity, I think it is the sulphur dioxide used as a preservative in some wines from hotter climes.
At the end of the day "de gustibus non disputandum est",. don't be fooled by wine snobs either, a £10 bottle can be as good as £500 bottle and both can be corked of course.

Special wine with a very high alcohol content, supposedly…so it kills the germs of the person who drank before you…eeew.
Until it is consecrated that is, then it becomes the blood of Christ and is no longer wine.

First you must find a type of red wine you enjoy drinking. There are so many varietials out there. What kinds of foods do you enjoy?
For Steak, you may want a merlot or cabernet
For Lamb, you may want a cebernet or zinfandel
For BBQ, you may want a zinfandel
For grilled chicken and/or pork perhaps a pinot
There's no right or wrong choice, wine is about preference.
There are a couple great wines out in the market place which are under $40 and have had great reviews and are good to drink now or celler for while. 2003 Whitehall Lane Cabernet has had several great reviews. But there are also sooo many others. Hartford Court also has some wonderful Zinfandels and Pinot's.
Wine tasting a big thing now… you may want to check out a site called localwineevents.com to see if there is a wine tasting event in your area to gather the information you need to make an informed selection.

“Such Great Heights” is a single released on January 21, 2003 by The Postal Service, under the Sub Pop Records label. The single includes a previously unreleased track “There’s Never Enough Time” and two cover tracks by The Shins and Iron & Wine of “We Will Become Silhouettes” and “Such Great Heights”, respectively.

To make wine at home, these are my favorite resources:

For virtually any fruit wine, the fruit is crushed in a press to extract the juice. Depending on the style, the pulp and seeds will be left in the must to ferment with the juice. For others, it will be strained out.
I just finished a batch of pomegranate wine (where the seeds pretty much ARE the juice) where I crushed all the pomegranates myself. It's quite a bit of work without the proper press.

If drinking wine you plan 1 bottle for 4 and 1/2 servings – however a tasting is far less about 1 oz per taster (about 30ml) which is approximately 25 tastings per bottle (750ml). I do recommend purchasing a few extra bottles to sell (just double your purchase price) or making a deal with a local wine seller to give you a commission for referring people to them for additional bottles. Have a card handy with the sellers name, address and a list of the wines they are tasting as well as a 1-5 score for the taster to keep so they remember the wines they preferred. Don't forget to have a selection of cheeses and crackers as well as some grapes and lots of water for cleansing the pallet (i recommend having a large vessel with cucumber slices in it for a full cleanse of the wine sugars) – then pour it into smaller pitchers as you go. Hope this helps!
