When going to a party, whether it be a backyard barbecue or a three-course dinner party, it's rude to show up empty handed. One of the best, most appreciated gifts to bring is a bottle of wine. However, you're not going to bring the same wine to such different events. Here's the best wines to bring where:
The barbecue
Barbecues are usually casual, laid back, and easy going so bringing a wine that matches is a must. A wine that is fruity and light will pair great with a summery day and delicious barbecue foods like ribs, burgers, and salads. Some of these types of wines include:
• Napa Cellars Pinot Noir 2014
• Duboeuf Beaujolais Nouveau 2016
• Talbott Kali-Hart Pinot Noir 2014
The casual get-together
The casual get-together is the perfect occasion to bring a wine that is easy to drink and interesting without being expensive. A good choice would be wines such as:
• Scarpetta Pinot Grigio delle Venezie
• Nozzole Chianti Classico
• Yalumba Antique Tawny Port
The Holiday party
The Holidays are usually a time of celebration so bringing a sparkling wine would be a great option. Sparkling wine also pairs well with appetizers which are popular for Holiday parties. Some wonderful choices for sparkling wine include:
• Korbel NV Blanc de Noirs
• Loosen Bros. NV Dr. L Sparkling Riesling
• Hermann J. Wiemer 2006 Cuvée Brut
The dinner party
Dinner parties are generally more formal and require a wine to match. If you don't know what's being served for dinner, it's a good idea to bring a versatile wine such as:
• NV Sorelle Casa Secco Italian Bubbles Rosé
• 2009 Leo Steen Saini Farms Chenin Blanc
• 2007 Château de la Font du Loup Châteauneuf-du-Pape
