Just because you give a 21 year old kid a blind tasting and he chooses Boone's Farm over Screaming Eagle, doesn't mean it's better.
Touching on what Jimmy said, I've had friends flat out say they don't like wine, because the wine they have had wasn't very good, OR they just didn't enjoy the style of the wine they had tried in the past. Give them something decent, or a style that they like and it changes their opinion. Everyone has their own particular tastes. Its just a matter of educating yourself on what they are
