I'm looking to buy a bottle of wine for me and someone and was just wondering what a good tasting wine that would taste good and still get you buzzed.

You need to experiment a little on your own. It really depends on what you like: sweet; semi sweet, dry, red, white or rose. For a new wine drinker I would suggest staying with the whites. If you are a semi sweet type wine drinker go for a or Riesling a Gewurtzer. If youare a real newbie try some Yellow tail and ask for a sample.

Yellow tail or barefoot wines are fine, also Blackbox is good boxed wine. You probably want to go for a merlot or a shirraz, which are kinds of wine that aren't too bitter

I'm not a fan of dry wines and as a beginner, you probably won't be either. You should try Riunite Lambrusco. It's a sweet red wine that has a great taste and goes with just about any meal. It's my all around wine. The best part about it is that it only costs $10 a bottle. At that price, I can afford to keep it stocked in my house. viewpoints.com/ Riunite-Lambrusco-Red-Wine-reviews Hope that helps!
