Why do my muscles ache after I drink wine?

Miquela G asked:


If I drink a couple of glasses of wine, the next day, I’m sore. This has always happened to me. I’ve asked so many people and no one seems to have an answer. My mom suggested some kind of an allergy.

How to buy wine, beer and liquor in Pittsburgh?

Brenda P asked:


Can I buy wine and beer at the grocery store like in NC but liquor in a gov’t store? We are moving in 2 days and at some point it will be important to know.

How do I get rid of wine mouth?

Jessie Bluejay asked:


Even if I have one glass of red wine, it stains my lips. I’ve tried exfoliants but they don’t get it all off. I’ve also tried wearing lip balm as I drink so that the wine doesn’t touch the skin but that doesn’t seem to work. I end up going to work the next day with wine stained lips!

What is a mellow tasting white wine?

Kim and Jim asked:


Im trying to find a very MELLOW tasting white wine. Im so tired of buying wine that I think Im going to like and then getting home and hating it! I had a glass of white wine at the Olive Garden a while ago that was sooo good! It was so easy going down almost like water! Any suggestions?

Thanks
What I mean by mellow is not to tart or sweet. I like wine that you can hardly taste…. but yet is still crisp!

mrbmum33 asked:


It’s an informal setting with no meal being served. I’m the only man among four other women and I’m sure they are planning on drinking wine. I want to show up with a bottle without their knowlege what type of wine should I bring???

How can I learn to appreciate wine more?

Polly asked:


I just don’t like it much and I like to consider myself somewhat of a ‘foodie’. I love champagne, but I just can’t seem to get a taste for really ‘dry’ table wines. I travel quite a lot and am constantly being presented with decent, regional wines. Why don’t I like them? Are there some wine/food pairings that you can recommend that might make me change my mind? Is it even possible?
Yes, I’ve tried wine tastings. Maybe my wine palate just isn’t sophisticated enough to appreciate the subtle nuances of each wine and really distinguish between them. I’d rather have just one or two wines to choose from. I know this is a tough question and maybe it’s just too broad.
Thanks so far to everyone. I DO like white zinfandel. The semi-sweets are the only ones I DO like, but they make me feel like a little kid with kool-aid! ;-)

how do i get red wine out of white leggings?

luna asked:


Spilt red wine on my leggings, took them off and put them in cold water until i was able to put stain remover on and put them in the washing machine. They’ve been through the wash about four times now, and the stain looks like a grease mark, how do i get it out?
Surely bleach would make them turn yellow?

We always go to Napa, but want to try SC Mountains this weekend. Any recommendations for wineries and/or knowledge around prices for wine tasting? If you could give us an itinerary, that’d be great.

How would you say “wine tasting” in Latin?

scary shari asked:


I’m trying to get creative for a freelance writing project, and I’d like to know how to say “wine tasting” in Latin. I’m assuming it begins with “viti” or “vini” but I’m not sure. I tried a few English-Latin online dictionaries, but either they didn’t work, or didn’t have a translation. (If you’re not sure how to say “wine tasting” exactly, I’d also accept a term that means someone who appreciates wine.)

If you can help me in any way, I’d really appreciate it! Thanks! :)
