This is something I can definitely relate to. I like good wine, that is to say, I have some notion of the kinds of wine I like and I really don't like the very cheap stuff. Which sounds like snobbery, but it isn't - it's not always true that more expensive is better - it's just a matter of finding out what you like. For me it's the same with beer, actually, and sushi, and chocolate, and tea, and other things that come in a range of qualities and varieties.

Thank you! This actually helped a ton. You're right - it wasn't alcohol that I was craving, but the taste of wine. And, yes, I'm very particular in the things I like.
