then youd probably like a riesling, very sweet fruity white
or a good quality south african pinotage, a very fruity red |

my current fave too in the "normal" category.
for more of a special occassion:
La Fiole du Pape (Chateau Neuf Du Pape, Pere Anselme)
France, 1996 or 1998 (I think?)
~$35 @ LCBO
ages very well and comes in one of the coolest bottles you'll find ;)
