As your would expect grasshoppers suggestions are appalling

Italian reds are too acidic and Barolo is too overblown in strength. Chablis and Sancerre are great wines but far far better value are equivalents from the burgundy and Loire regions. You often pay just for the name

I avoid too high strength wines and nt keen on Shiraz or Pinot noir

Loire reds (hugely underrated)
Claret
South African whites (most elegant of new world)
Spanish Albariño
Austrian whites
White burgundy

Drink a little more white than red
