The problem with buying wine is just like the problem everyone has when they go food shopping..."what should I get for tea? Oh I'll just that thing I like". Most people tend to stick to the thing that they know and really don't try to branch out. New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio is generally the only thing people ever ask for.
My advice for if you choose to grow up a little bit and try something else, is to think about flavours you like and pick a grape variety with similar characteristics. Maybe for your first try at wine adventure, don't go rogue and try something completely off the wall....think small to begin with.
If you like red wine with a lot of flavour, try Malbec, Shiraz or Primitivo/Zinfandel. If you like zesty whites, try Albariño, Godello or maybe a slightly smoother Gruner veltliner.
Try something new!!!
