I actually kind of like the Francis Coppola brand (I've had a couple different varieties). But I'm not a snob, so I don't know what's what. I used to drink the Berringer White Zinfandel, so obviously my taste isn't the best, haha.
It's funny how many times snob or snobby has been used as a response. We all have our tastes in music and movies and tattoos, etc. Wine should be no different. I love good wine but also like cheap beer and chicken fingers. It's all good...

Drink what you love! Nothing else matters. I prefer Coppola for Godfather, but you like Punchdrunk Love so you are automatically the coolest!
I might be a wine snob if I could afford to be, but I can't so I just enjoy it occasionally. I prefer reds, the best I've had was Sachino from Georgia (Russia) and I don't know if I'll ever come across it again. Second favorite: Apothic Red, a California blend of syrah, zinfandel, merlot and cabernet. I am usually a pinot noir lover and I loooved Apothic Red.
White wine, I am fond of Riesling. My fave is Schmitt Sohne Piesporter Michelsberg Spatlese.
And, most stuff I've tried from Mirassou is quite tasty.
The people I visit for Thanksgiving every year have their own wine cellar, and break it open at about 9:30 AM. Sadly, their taste runs to very dry Californians. So, I stick to beer.
As for wine, I really enjoyed Big House white. Haven't tried their red.

Pinot Grigio, usually Ecco Domani or Bella Sera.
Pinot Grigio is my favorite white, and Bella Sera is pretty tasty.
Also, when I lived in Mendoza, Argentina is when I discovered I like wine, so I'm partial to anything from there. Especially Norton, which I visited in person.

Heh, I became a Pinot drinker after watching Sideways for the first time.
