Never Again Feel
Unsure Or Intimidated When Ordering Wine
In Front Of Friends And Loved Ones (or Snooty Wine Waiters!)
| From: | David Derby |
Dear Fellow Wine Enthusiast -
As I am
sure you will agree, good wine is one of life's greatest pleasures.
Unfortunately, many people find wine and how to select and serve it
more intimidating than enjoyable.
Have you ever wondered why it is that we are unwilling to allow someone to dictate our taste in music, art or fashion, or even which book is most appropriate for us to be reading at the moment, and yet at the same time we start panicking at the mere thought of selecting the right wine for a special occasion or - heaven forbid - being called upon to order a bottle from the wine list in a restaurant?
We feel intimidated by the choice, uneasy with the fact of being unable to make an accurate prediction of whether what is inside the bottle will be delicious or disastrous. Is the waiter being honest about his recommendations? Is it acceptable to send it back if it’s a bad bottle? ...
We live in fear of being asked to bring the wine to a friend’s house for a dinner party and making the wrong choice. Red wine goes with beef, right? If I stick to that rule everything will be fine, won't it?
The main reason we are afraid of wine is because we believe that it holds the power to make us feel foolish or appear stupid. In reality, it is simply that we must learn something new.
Perhaps you have "sophisticated" friends who appear only too happy to confirm your lack of knowledge about wine as they look down their long noses and indulge in polysyllabic obfuscation while extolling the perennial virtues of that magnum of Chateaux Latour '53 Pauillac they picked up in the south of France last summer for a steal of just $1,500.00. "Very big-boned" they say, "and just starting to ease into a long final straight. We simply must find a place for this in the cellar."
What the ...?! Wine is a beverage you say and therefore made for drinking not worshipping - and I for one would certainly agree with you whole-heartedly. (Did they bring the Latour with them for dinner? No? Didn't think so!)
Now, just because you're ready to expand your knowledge of the oldest drink known to man does not mean that you have to become some wannabe wine snob or enroll yourself at the local sommelier school to appreciate the subtleties of fine wine. On the other hand, there are a few things you will need to know if you truly want to become an authority on the subject ...
Like discovering the proper serving temperatures, understanding the reasons for decanting, appropriate pairings of your wine with your food, and knowing which wines to lay down and which to drink now are all important keys to unlocking the mystical world of red wine.
Most reference books, courses and magazines assume a certain level of understanding about the basics of wine. But everyone has to start somewhere and here at RedWinesForBeginners.com is where you will gain practical information from general wine basics to discovering the more esoteric knowledge of red wines in particular.
How
To Gain A Fundamental Understanding Of Red Wine
Quickly And Easily - 100% Guaranteed!
How many times have you wanted to ask someone about something and just were too afraid to ask for fear of being considered dumb or stupid? Many of us have done that, myself included, many times. Until I realized that often the person I was asking did not know the answer either, or worse, pretended to - and presented me with false information.
If you've ever glanced at a restaurant wine list or browsed the wine aisle of the grocery store, you know there are a lot of different kinds of wine out there. But that's just the tip of the iceberg. Several hundred grape varieties are used to make the world's wines, resulting in different flavors, personalities, and qualities. The sheer variety can make choosing just one bottle more than a little overwhelming.
As I set out to explore the exciting world of red wines, I was unsure about where to begin. Should I take a class? Join a wine-tasting group? Visit a winery? Buy a variety of wines and start sampling?
Well, as Nani Amy used to say, if something is worth doing, it is worth doing well ...
So I hit the books, read the magazines, took the courses, joined the groups and (of course) went a-tasting!
Let me tell you, the amount of information out there is quite simply mind-boggling - even for the most eager wine connoisseur. With friends, teachers, books, magazines, newsletters, and web sites offering opinions, evaluations, criticisms, and historical perspectives on everything from winemakers and vineyards to wineries and growing regions ...
It took me a LONG time and cost a LOT of money - but you know what? It was worth every hour of research and every dime I spent, because with this knowledge I now

I discovered that, as with many things in life, a little knowledge goes a long way. Just as a concert is enhanced by knowledge of the composer or the piece, a bottle of wine is much more enjoyable if you know something about it.
Let's face it: It makes little sense to pay the premium for wines of character only to swallow them unconsciously. Each wine has a unique personality just waiting to be discovered. By learning to taste the story in the wine, you will also transcend the intimidation you once felt.
Discovering the finesse of fine wine is a noble and very personal endeavor. Responses to different wines are as individual as fingerprints. An aroma or flavor that you find pleasing may not be so attractive to another. The trick is understanding how to translate your preferences into words. When you begin to truly understand, taste and evaluate what's in your glass and be able share your knowledge with others, you will add amazing new dimensions to your life.
