I'm looking for a good $20-$30 bottle of wine. I truthfully have no experience with wine whatsoever. I'm pretty much open to anything except Yellow Tail. I tried it once based on my friends recommendations, only to take 2 sips and sell the rest of the bottle to a friend. Any recommendations?
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Nice move,
I always take a bottle of wine over a girls place, anything from Australia is good (Particuarly the Barossa) just go for something sweet, either a sav blanc or a ros'e should do the trick. Don't go with any of that french ****, it's overated and over priced. And yeah, don't go with yellow tail, that **** is the worst Aussie wine on the market.
Cheers!

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

This is precisely what an uneducated pallete would say. If it's just going to be you and her enjoying conversation I would suggest a good pinot gris/pinot grigio. It's easy on the throat and as a lighter aromatic than fvcking merlot.Obsidian said:
Pinot noir (and the respective family of pinot wines) are extremely versatile and will compliment cheeses as well as meat.

A nice Chianti. It goes very well with fava beans.

We're going out on the town in the city and I figured upon the return to the hotel room with some nice wine would be excellent.
Maybe champagne instead? Wine to me seems to go more with dinner than late-night fun.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
