How To Choose The Perfect Wine

I am not a wine connoisseur – not by a long shot.  I like what I like, and I believe that Moscato goes with absolutely everything.  Sometimes even breakfast.  But as much as I love my Moscato I have to admit that different wines compliment different meals and occasions, and that *gasp* not everyone shares in my adoration for one single wine.

So how does someone like me choose the perfect wine for gift giving?

The Bordeaux Wine Council has just released a great new selection tool that helps you find the perfect Bordeaux for any occasion. With 100 wines under $35, I can do all of my holiday shopping – both for my own meals and for gifts – all in one place.  Check out how it works –

To find the perfect wine you simply go to Today's Bordeaux Wine Selection and choose your occasion and whether you want a red or white wine from the right hand side.  The site then automatically gives you their top suggestions chosen by their “jury” of eight wine connoisseurs, bloggers, and wine trade professionals.

There are actually all kinds of resources on the Bordeaux Wines website – from choosing the perfect wine to  understanding the label (it's in French of course) to how to properly serve and store wine.  I have to admit I lost an entire hour of my life reading on this site and learning new stuff about wine.  I cant imagine ever parting from my beloved Moscato, but I may have to venture out into the wine world… for the sake of research, of course.
