So, if you just want wine to chill out and destress after a shitty day whats your preferred grape, this is not about wine tasting or food its simply about wine drinking.
Beer. Aside from being the smart-assed answer, it’s the serious answer. I’m not sure I’d ever want to drink wine while stressed. Having a beer can be just what the doctor ordered. Alternatively, perhaps a coffee.
Because as others have said, it’s really more beer or cocktail time, I’m going to go with bojo. Probably get a fruity light one put a chill on it and make it easy on the mind.
Time of year also plays big in a decision to drink wine…coming home from work on a 105 degree day I am not really inclined to drink a huge tannic red, but in winter time it might make sense.
If I ever feel as though I need alcohol to medicate myself because I am stressed, I will have to seriously consider whether I need to sell off the cellar.
