I don't think wine to pepsi is like "compairing a
Ford Pinto to driving a Rolls" as pepsi always tastes the same but wine has
infinite variety as does tea in fact....
I love wine but am totally anti "wine snobbism" and there is a lot of
pressure to drink wines in restaurants when sometimes I just feel like a
nice crisp clear, palate cleansing glass of water....however some wine and
food combinations should be tried I was swilling round a nice cheap Spanish
red with some stilton in my mouth last night....delicious.

If you think you don't like wines but may be willing to be converted start
with whites first....try a few good ones.....they're less offensive and
different to non wine drinkers or people with a sweeter tooth, but is no
"right" way and you should eat and drink what you like how you like!
