For me it depends on season and time of day. In the summer, I'm much more on beer, and this has been my poision of choice this summer:
A Toronto microbrew that's simply excellent, especially for bottles.
With dinner it's usually an Australian shiraz or French bordeaux. While my wife's pregnant, I had to promise her I won't by any bottles over $15, just to be fair
(Remember that with our CDN taxes, that's probably equivalent to a $5-$10 bottle in the US, eg. bought a 1.5L bottle of Yellow Tail last night, $23)
In the evenings it's scotch, either Ballantine's, or a single malt if I'm feeling a little more picky.
My other favourite summertime drink is Blue Sapphire gin, straight over ice with a shot of lime. Wait about 5 minutes for the ice to cool the gin a bit (or use a shaker if in a hurry). Mmmmm... Screw tonic water
