Just drink what you enjoy and let the wine snobs enjoy their games. and remember that price does not equal quality in wine or in many other areas.
Just like enjoying food - everything in moderation (okay, not always!) and learn why you like what you like, by trying other things and appreciating the good stuff.

I agree it's all about enjoying yourself, spending time with friends and relaxing.

If you find that you like a particular style of wine, try to taste it from a few sources.
When you find something you like at a great price, snap it up and enjoy it by the case.
