Wine drinkers: Do you usually opt for white or red wine?

If you like wine, you probably tend to favor white or red (or rosé), right? Research from YouGov.com found that 60 percent of Americans enjoy an occasional glass of wine. Out of that 60 percent, 34 percent drink wine at least once a month. So what kind of wine is America’s favorite?

Red wine is more popular than white or rosé, the research says. Within that, Merlot is the most popular type of red, followed by Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, then Zinfandel. The favorite for white wine? Moscato.

So, if you were to pour yourself a glass right now, what would it be? Tell us below. Thanks (and cheers!).

I just wonder why the RV Travel staff would entitle a survey question that asks “Wine drinkers …..” and then provide an optional answer “I don’t drink wine.” The wording of the survey question would imply to me that the intent is to poll those who actually drink wine. What’s next? A poll asking “If you bring a dog with you in your RV do you feed it canned food, dry food, or freshly prepared food and provide a fourth response that states “I don’t have a dog.”

It just allows more people to participate. Usually it’s people saying there’s a response they say was missing. Guess you can’t win either way eh Diane?

I don’t do the poll questions, so just go with whatever the writer puts in there. Someone finds something to complain about almost every time, however. (I don’t drink wine, either. 🙄 ) Have a good day, Ron. 😀 –Diane

White wine spritzer in hot summer and red wine whenever we feel like it. Sometimes depends on the meal.

Not being a wine drinker, my wonderful wife of 6 1/2 years introduced me to blackberry wine. We’ll have a glass every 3-4 weeks, that’s all.

We’re regular wine drinkers, and 95% of the time it’s Red, with Cab being our “go to” choice and Bordeaux Blends a second. When it’s white, it will be a Chardonnay most often. We only put Moscato on pancakes… (Kidding of course, but we gave up on sweet wines decades ago).

Depends on if it’s with food or sipping, so I marked about equal.

Only drink wine when going out to dinner. Sometimes not even then. Used to only drink red. Got headaches and more importantly, couldn’t sleep at night. So I usually order a Pinot Grigio as it is light and not too sweet…and no headaches or sleep issues.

We are a split family. I like white wines and my spouse usually drinks a red. We do find common ground with a pinot grigio
