Is there a difference between white wine drinkers and red wine drinkers?

Asked by flo (13313points) April 27th, 2019

Are the white wine drinkers more…(something good, fill in the blank) or orange flavored soda drinkers more something good than another flavor?

I’d like to answer the question but I can’t parse out what it is you’re trying to say.

White wine drinkers’ teeth don’t turn blue as the party progresses.

White wine drinkers are preferable to red drinkers if it comes to spilling the wine.

Hope this helps. It’s nothing personal, but the details make no sense.

Of course it makes no sense. But a doctor actually said something like that. ”... wine drinkers dot dot dot .better than… wine drinkers. I guess he would say strawberry flavored soda drinkers are better (something good) than banana flavored? Edited.

That’s the kind of thing that turns people into anti vaxxers.

I’m not a wine drinker. I personally don’t think one way or the other about wine drinkers.

I do think some red wine drinkers see white wine as maybe not as sophisticated? However, I think real connoisseurs care about the pairing, and since they would frown on red with fish for instance, they certainly wouldn’t look down on drinking white in the right circumstance.

A few Italians I know only like red. It might be a coincidence.

I know some people can’t drink red, because it gives them headaches or other problems.

As far as fruit sodas, I think of them as more prevalent in minority groups, but I have no idea the real stats. Young children maybe also since they are caffeine free.

But neither is not better or worse when it comes to eating heathier (when it comes to the other things they consume)? Like white wine drinkers don’t eat more fibre, more anything good nutritionally, right or wrong?

Red wine is supposed to have more anti-oxidants than white wine. The problem is that the amount is too small to have medicinal benefits.

As for fizzy drinks I prefer coke, but I can have pepsi or root beer or Dr. pepper.

@flo I’ve never heard any of those generalizations before.

Some people are allergic or sensitive to the tannins in red wine, so prefer white
wine.

It has been my experience also that Italians I’ve known are partial to red almost exclusively.

Difference between white wine drinkers and red wine drinkers? Not really. They all improve with age.

The difference between red and white wine drinkers is their preference.

KNOWITALL's avatar

Most people I know who know anything about white, prefer reds. So perhaps some would think white wines are for less sophisticated palates.

@JLeslie Me neither it’s a one of thing. Good thing.
@Pied_Pfeffer Exactly. Preference based on taste.
