Do you have wine. In the house?

[MaryIsA]

Inspired by the ‘staples’ thread. We have wine and I can5 remember the last time we didn’t...

Hmmm maybe I need to rethink my choices,

I think I might have a dusty bottle of Prosecco somewhere that I was given as a Christmas present but otherwise no, I don’t keep alcohol in the house usually.

I can’t imagine not having it in the house. About 6 bottles of champagne a couple of Rioja and a few other ransoms or rose and white. In fairness we only ever have one bottle a week between us max but like to have it in for guests (though not at the moment clearly).

Yes, probably 3 or 4 bottles of wine and a couple of bottles of prosecco, but haven't drank any since New Years day.

Only because we got a meal deal this weekend

I have one bottle of white wine...,,it’s been in the cupboard for around 8 months

Yes, we have a wine fridge though stocks are a little low.
I used to work in the industry though; I actually don't drink all that often but buying is a bit of a hobby.

Always. Especially at the moment.

Always, plus a full range of spirits and liqueurs

We've got a bottle of champagne I was given for my birthday in the garage (we drank the one DH bought for me). We might have some bottles of red, not sure.

Just finished a bottle

Have some white, which is last resort wine.

I think there’s about half a bottle on the side that dh is drinking this evening, and another half in the cupboard from last weekend which will be used for cooking now.
Every few months we go to majestic and choose 6 bottles but we don’t drink much in the way of wine.

Loads, of all colours and styles. Rarely drink it though... We buy a case at a time, at the moment there is remnants of a case from an English vineyard, a Pieroth case and a Laithwaites case. But two young kids, pregnancy, breastfeeding... They've not been drunk! Need to remedy that.

Might be a small bottle of cooking wine for risotto in the cupboard. White wine tastes like sick to me so I wouldn’t drink it. There’s definitely cheap brandy left over from Father Christmas’s visit and setting light to the pudding.

Always have wine, champagne, Prosecco, gin, rum, whiskey, port and cognac in the house.

Can often go weeks or months without a drink.

Yes but only because we had some delivered today for our Valentines meal tomorrow (DH is working very early on Monday, we're celebrating a day early so we can have a few drinks together.)

Yes always also beer and champagne.
Also, have bottles of the usual whisky, gin, vodka, brandy.
When we have visitors (can't remember the last time) I always offer them a drink when they arrive.

I try not to... if it's there I drink it!!

Are you coming over?

Rather a lot of home brew red wine, a selection of spirits and two bottles of unopened Prosecco. None of which I can drink at the moment as I have been so unwell since having Covid at Christmas. I didn't even have a drink then 😭

no because I drink it sadly lacking in self control...

One or two glasses worth in a bottle in the fridge and an emergency bottle of champagne left over from god knows when. We buy as and when we drink it, we don’t keep it in stock, but we do have a bottle of sherry on tap for cooking (hugely underrated ingredient). The

I have two bottles of fizz (champagne), some cooking wine (red and white) but mainly I have spirits as I prefer bourbon and vodka over wine. DH has some rum about (for when I run out of bourbon and vodka as he’s not really a drinker- see why I married him?). Might have a couple of bottles of Prosecco somewhere too.

Noooo, cuz I don't get my kicks that way😁🤭
But way back in the day when I used to🤔 yeah☝️😊there would always be wine in the house, usually red

I used to work in the wine business so I always had wine in my house.

The good? I was a hit with many because you could guarantee I was bringing a bottle for a host, birthday, Christmas, housewarming, etc gift.

The bad? I stopped working for the company and I now have to pay for my own wine. I went from two cases that were constantly being rotated within a month to a bottle a week.

No, don’t like wine. I occasionally have a Whiskey, single malt , if it’s been a bad shift. Steady my nerves and try and get the screams of the relatives out of my head. Something light to eat and then exhaustion over takes me and my bed is the only thing on the planet that has any relevance. But no , we don’t have any wine.
