Knowing your wine is extremely important. Know your reds and whites. More specifically know the type of wine that your significant other enjoys. This will allow for a pleasant evening and great conversation.
To keep your options simple, when choosing a red wine go for a Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine blends well with a Shiraz and pairs well with all types of meats. A must have bottle of wine is a Pinot Noir. Nothing less than a $30 bottle in my experience is worth the time of day. Anything under this price point for a bottle of Noir is flavored like cardboard. P.S. Merlot is a thing of the past. If you intend to purchase a bottle of white wine, go for a bottle of Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio. Woman love white wine because it tends to be sweat. Imagine yourself in a park on a beautiful day conversing over a few delectables and a fine bottle of wine reading this blog.
Before I leave you to go do some purchasing, a perfect dessert wine is a Moscato or Zinfandel. Moscato wines tend to be very sweat in taste and light bodied and White Zinfandel is an off-dry to sweet, pink-colored wine.
