The Best Wine

Over the last few years, we have become more intrigued with finding good wine. Hubby and I could never agree on a bottle of wine to share. He preferred the reds, cabernets in particular. I preferred the whites, white zinfandel was my choice for a long time. (I know, it’s the Kool Aid of the wine world!). We have both made some concessions and our wine tastes have both migrated toward the middle. Now we can share a good pinot noir or a shiraz, and occasionally I’ll find a wonderful white wine that Hubby will drink too. He tends to drink merlots now and I go for the pinot grigios, and so for Christmas, he gave me this great wine cellar with a side for white and a side for red, each at their own temperature. Notice which side contains more bottles!

This year we hosted a wine tasting for some friends with Spanish wines as the centerpiece. We had a knowledgeable sommelier who explained the regions of Spain and which wines come from the different areas. It was very informative and many of us bought many bottles!

Do you have a favorite wine? How did you find it? What do you love about it? To anyone who's out there reading, I’d like to hear your recommendations.
