I don't have a sense of smell (technically it's called anosmia for the curious), and I completely agree. I find that most wine, especially red wine, is fairly bad. White wine seems to be more consistent, but after reading this article and some of the comments I wonder if it's because it's usually refrigerated.
I've never done a blind red/white test. That sounds like an interesting project for the weekend. I should put a bottle of red in the fridge.
Beer, on the other hand, is something that is both more consistent and more varied. And usually cheaper.
