Personal Experience with Wine

Being totally honest, I am not much of a wine drinker. My previous experience buying wine is finding a wine that is not the cheapest but pretty close or buy a bottle that I know and trust such as Barefoot. I drink wine only once a week at maximum and usually, that is with friends. 
When I have to choose a drink, I almost always go for beer over wine. I have been to numerous beer breweries both in the United States and abroad but never a winery.
My family is much different in the way they consume wine. They have always had a glass of wine for dinner every Friday night for as long as I remember. My parents are in a local wine club at a farm/winery near my house. My grandfather works for a wine distribution center and always supplies us with nice wine at family events.
I am in this class to try to expand my knowledge of wine. I want to learn to talk-the-talk as long as knowing what I am consuming.
