I am having a red wine tasting party tonight, and I'd like to sneak in a bottle of white wine and see if people can find it among the red. I'd like to use one that's not so easy to find though. Something that might taste like red wine. I love reds, but don't drink a lot of white, so I don't know which to chose. Any ideas?|||None of it - white wine doesn't have the tannins a red does|||If you could get a very good, very old white Burgundy - I bet you could fool people. But it needs to be about 15 years old or more - they take on such rich colors and flavors at that point that, though I suppose they don't really taste like red wine, they really don't taste anything like the white wines most people are used to. I have a friend with a nice collection of older white Burgundies and we are always surprising the heck out of people when they try them. And we haven't actually tried to fool anyone, but we have said that we bet that if we didn't know what we were drinking we might think it's a red.|||I haven't found a single white wine that has a similar taste to red wine.
Sorry.|||Good luck with your little rouse but I can't think of a wine that will work. Maybe some rose could have just enough pigmentation to fool them but only if you conduct a blind tasting.|||chardonnay
