The Wine Curmudgeon’s fifth annual Do-it-yourself New Year’s wine resolutions — because some things about the wine business never change no matter how much we wish they did.

Just click on the drop-down menus and select your wine resolutions for the new year. Those who get the blog via email or RSS may need to click this link to go the blog to use the menus.

In 2018, I’m going to drink:
less wine, because I’m tired of wine and paying too much money for it.more wine, because that’s the only way to get drunk. And isn’t that our goal?about the same amount of wine, because that’s what I always do.hardly any wine, because I’m not a Baby Boomer and wine doesn’t interest me.

In 2018, I’ll try to educate myself about wine:
That way, I can find the best values.I’m tired of not understanding what all that silly winespeak on the labels means.How else will I know when the Wine Curmudgeon is wrong so I can leave a nasty comment?I won’t, because I’m not a Baby Boomer and wine doesn’t interest me.

In 2018, I’m going to drink more rose:
Because if I do, maybe the Wine Curmudgeon will shut up about it.But only if it tastes like red wine.Because it’s getting to be the only cheap wine that’s any good any more.But for cocktails, because I’m not a Baby Boomer and wine doesn’t interest me.

In 2018, I’m going to make wine part of a healthy lifestyle:
Because of its heart-healthy benefits.Because wine in moderation has health benefits.I won’t, because wine is evil and the CDC says we should stop drinking.I won’t, because I’m not a Baby Boomer and wine doesn’t interest me.

In 2018, I will buy:
more cheap wine, because the Wine Curmudgeon knows what he writes about.more expensive wine, because I’m a wine snob and proud of it.more expensive wine with high scores, because I’m the ultimate wine snob.hardly any wine at all,because I’m not a Baby Boomer and wine doesn’t interest me.
