Twist-off cap + flask-shaped bottle is the way to go!

That's crap
GTFO
Fuller bodied red wines with tannic structure and firm fruit.
Cabernet sauvignon and malbec are spot on recommendations. Big zins, big Italian sangioveses and meritage (Bdx) blends also work. Pe e sirahs are under-appreciated in general and pair well with steak IMO.
There are some white wines that will stand up to grilled meat. You might try an aggressively oaked Meursault with a steak sometime. Or Champagne. Dee-licious.

This is very true. Guenoc makes a great pe e sirah.Pe e Sirahs are under-appreciated in general and pair well with steak IMO.
I down 3 or 4 bottles a week. Usually on weekends. For a steak I'd recommend Casillero del Diablo Carmenere. thats my weapon of choice for red meat.
for seafood or if you want white wine, I go with New Zealand wine usually Nobles. Drink it ice cold. Sauvinon Blanc is the way to go IMO.
for getting buzzed I down a bottle of cheap barefoot. Any kind is good. Good cheap stuff
Easy on the pocketbook, too. I'm a fan of Guenoc.
it'll get you drunk for a quick trip to the gas station and 10 bucks
the malbec is definitely the way to go with a good steak.
I'm not a wine connoisseur/expert by any means, but I can't imagine life without it. All good suggestions here, just dive in and experiment. I'm guessing there's all kinds of websites about wine/food affinities out there. It's not a serious thing though, it's more about your preferences.
Chianti can be good with beef. I enjoy Pinot Noir as well. Beaujolais. The idea is that you're supposed to have heartier, full-bodied wines with steak, but personally I find that not always to be not always what I enjoy or what I'm in the mood for.
get yourself a jug of sangria and dig in.
youll hear your stomach tearing, but it heals in due time.
Sure, why not? You are the expert on what you like best. Nobody else can tell you what the wine tastes like to you, or what pairs best with what.
There's no rules in wine drinking. None whatsoever. Go wild.
great advice.... I'm on a pinot kick right now. been coming back to this lately

That label's considered pornography in Alabama. No lie.
