to think if you only drink white zinfandel...

[Marcelinewhyareyousomean]

...you should take it with you when you visit someone's house?

Friend of a friend seems scandalised that I don't have any. I've never heard of it. No rose, but white, red, gin, vodka, lots of lovely soft drinks and mixers.

Gin galore, gorgeous glasses, ice made out of lime juice and frozen blueberrys.

I'd never complain. I'd take a drink for myself and take the host something. Feck all but a sour face.

I could have popped the shops in the time it's taken me to google what it is and write this. I'm feeling evil so I won't.

Is it fantastic? Am I missing out?

Yanbu. What an arse

Your drinks selection sounds delicious and generous. I don't really drink much alcohol, but your post makes me crave a gin or vodka with some of your glamorous ice cubes and fancy glasses- can I come round instead?

Of course, the friend of a friend is a bad guest- rude, childish and unreasonable.

I would never buy White Zinfandel - nor would I buy Blue Nun or Lambrusco.

This guest must come across people not having her crappy wine in on a regular basis.

I AM up my own arse with gorgeous glasses. They are massive goblet type things. Blueberries have been frozen onto a wooden kebab stick and I'm up my own arse there too.

I can't drink either. I'm having tonic, lime ice and blueberries.

If you only drink xyz you should bring it with you. Expecting white zinfandel, Bollinger or single malt is off. Especially rude if you've arrived empty handed.

White Zinfandel is the dregs of the barrel mixed up.

Your guest is highly rude, and needs to fuck off home can I come instead?

Next time she visits serve her flat lemonade with a small splash of Noilly Prat.

I'm loving your ice cubes, I will be making them soon!!!

I love an icy cold glass of white zin on a hot day with a salad and some crunchy bread. it is a warm weather drink for when you want a glass of wine but almost want juice. Not normally a wine with a proper meal.

Zinfandel should be red!

I'm really impressed by the ice made out of lime juice. That's genius.

When my citrus fruit gets on a bit I squeeze it into ice cube trays.

Gin in lovely glasses available for everybody.

Must get back.

Who is she anyway, for you to prefer talking to us rather than your guests?

Zinfandel. Is that a boy's name or a girl's name??

And the fact that she's arrived empty handed- she's obviously got no manners! How rude! Even rude people should know enough about etiquette to bring something (bottle or chocolates or whatever)...

Your guest is rude, but so are you.

In what way is OP rude firesafety ?

Sounds a bit like people from silly TV shows who only eat cheese for 10 years, got to eat and drink on your own if you are that fussy. Bring a bottle as a guest is a given as well.

Being on here, moaning about her guest, instead of entertaining said guest.

Drbadbride - Zinfandel is definitely a boy's name. Like Chianti.

Sauvignon or Rioja for a girl.

When I was 20 I used to drink it, I had a few people up their own asses comment that but wasn't really wine and I should drink something better.

You sound pretentious so YABU and a bad host.

Zinfandel is a boy's name (nn Fanny) Chardonnay is a girl's name though

FarFromAnyRoad john is out playing darts with people who dont give a flying fuck what anyone is drinking in their gorgeous glasses

Chianti is a girls name!

White zinfandel = tart fuel

Offer her a sweet white or a mixer with excess sugar, same thing surely? I hate those sweet rose's, it's like someone tried to make wine with strawberry laces.

Derek there is probably an actual phobia that is the fear of being without rum, possibly Morgan's Spiced Syndrome
