AIBU to expect visitors to bring a decent bottle of wine with them.

We have had lots of friends and relatives over to stay and for dinner over Christmas. It is lovely to see them all but why do they always bring a totally crap bottle of New World wine with them?
I have in my kitchen 10 bottles of vile red and white wine. Should I pour it all down the sink, use it for cooking or give it back to them next time I visit? Any other options would be considered!

If you ever see Wairau River, snap it up, it's gorgeous.

I find too that you can't pick a wine in the price thinking the more you pay the better it is. I get Kim crawfords as an everyday drinking wine. In canada it was $20-24 a bottle, here in the states we can get it for $10-12. And I like to say, I was having a chat with or hanging out with Kim last night when I drink it.

I think the price thing does apply if you're in the country where the wine was made.

But you're right, if it's been imported, then price does go out the window a bit, and makes it harder to compare.
