TWO MONTHS AGO I asked readers to send me the names of their favorite everyday wines. I thought I might hear from a few dozen at most; I was wrong. I’ve received over 180 emails as of this writing and the correspondence goes on.
The wines were nearly as varied as the readers’ reasons for choosing them, though certain wines showed up over and over, notably Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand and red wines from Italy. Many readers offered a bit of background regarding their choices—which I particularly loved. It’s always interesting to learn why people choose the wines they do, and I learned about some wines that were new to me, too.
