My business partner recently returned from a 18 day South Africa trip. He loved the country. And he couldn't stop complementing the wine. He said it was wonderful and dramatically inexpensive.
Glad he enjoyed it!


It's unfortunate that we have to spend $20 - $30 for a really good varietal red here, and you can get a better wine there for $7.

Oh well.
Well, then, what better reason to visit??

I really don't understand the price difference - it's not to do with a discrepancy in disposable income, for one thing. Rand to dollar, the wines are still way cheaper here.

One thing that I do know to be true - our cheap wines (average house wine type, non-vintage, blended) are far superior to the stuff you would get in, say, Spain or even the States, and they cost a pittance. In some cases it could work out to under $2 a bottle for a very pleasant table wine....
 
Jeez...I think I win. I drink as much as I can afford. During the good times lots and lots, during the skinny times not so much. I come from a family who's tolerance to alcohol is legendary and the gene didn't skip me. My grandmother could drink 24 bottles of Labatts 50 in a single setting, right out of the box warm. People who didn't believe me were afforded the opportunity to witness it. She was over 75 years old and weighed about 110 pounds, the last time I had someone over to see it.

On the weekend I will imbibe a 24, during the week maybe another 24. I never drink and drive and I never miss work because of beer. I am able to set it aside for some months if it is needed, sometimes I am the designated driver and I don't drink that night and my wife gets to drink some wine.

I only drink when I am in a good mood, I can't waste good beer on a miserable mood. I only drink 5% beer, non of that Silver Bullet Coors (the training bra of beer) for me. As I stated I drink a lot and seldom get into a bad mood. Sometimes I am the only one drinking and sometimes I am the only one not drinking. I never get hangovers no matter how much I drink the night before. Like my grandfather, the booze will probably kill me but he lived to 84 before it did.
 
Why are 'you' Americans so far behind 'us' brits in the drinking department?

I am shocked at the poll results. What lovely livers you must all have.

Pansies.
 
I also drink about as much as I can afford. And I'm not overly picky about taste. I tend to drink lager, bitter, vodka, wine, or occasionally gin. Or schnapps.

I drink almost every day, and often to excess.

Define alcoholic how you will. I don't want to stop drinking, so whether I could is neither here nor there. I ENJOY it.

Must start homebrewing soon.

Cjeers,
Rat.
