We’ve ‘re-branded’ Wine 101 to ‘New To Wine’, to encourage those (as the forum title outlines) who are relatively new to wine, and wanting to learn more, explore more regions or varietals, or simply understand more about the basics of wine to come here and learn from our more…ahem…seasoned wine geeks.
The moderators and I will be looking carefully at this forum, to make sure those participating in discussions are kind, generous, and welcoming, so don’t be afraid to rise from lurkerdom and post your questions. This is a safe place in which to do so!
Simply post your question as a new topic, and let’s start the discussion:

Hi,
This is such a great thread for anyone starting their wine journey. I’ve been exploring different varietals recently—really enjoying California Cabs and dabbling in Old World wines too.
I also put together a simple guide on wine basics that might be helpful for beginners: Wine for Beginners Guide
Looking forward to learning more from everyone here. Cheers!

Hi Im Steve. Im here primarily to sell my wine. does anyone have any ideas ofhow to do that? I was going to go thru Winebid but they mention $2500 min. otherwise they take a larger profit
something like 20% plus shipping fee. I assume they normally cover the shipping and have a lower commission. Not sure.
Hey Steve - we have Commerce Corner here, but it requires a 25-post minimum, basically establishing oneself in the community before trusting others to arrange private transactions.
There aren’t many other websites that allow any sort of private wine sales transactions, so auctions is your best bet. If you don’t have enough to make the minimum, pehraps just enjoy the wines instead, as it may not be worth the hassle anyway!
