General Wine Do's and Don'ts
Written By: Brian Freedman on Thu, Jan 1st 1970
Do...
- 1. Keep an open mind; you never know when you'll discover your next favorite bottle
- 2. Ask the sommelier for help in a restaurant; he or she should know a lot more about their list than anyone else
- 3. Keep up to date with the latest wine-and-health news: Everyday, it seems, some new study is released that proves that wine is much more than a tasty beverage: It is often one of the keys to a healthy lifestyle
Don't...
- 1. Shy away for a bottle just because it's sealed with a screw-cap
- 2. Avoid bottles just because the label is difficult to understand
- 3. Refer to the name on the label as "the winemaker"; it's the producer, pure and simple
