Do you have it with food, esp. the appropriate food? It can make a difference.
I dont like sweet wines, but if you have a dessert (sweet) wine with dessert, it works. Try some wines with cheeses, if you havent. Personally I think that chardonnay and pretzels is an awesome combination.
Edit: and there's tons of decent wines in the $12 - $15 range.
I do. I generally have it with dinner when I do, but it's just always underwhelming. Like, the last one I had just ended up having this weird vinegar aftertaste, and it was just unpleasant. Poured a beer to cleanse the pallet afterwards. :lol:
A big problem is I don't know where to start really. No real idea about the styles, and whatnot. Plus, compared to beer, it is pretty expensive. Even at $12-15 a bottle, that's still just one night. Where I can get at least a 4 pack of beer for that amount, and I half way know what I'm getting into. I know the styles, the good breweries, etc.
