Ordering wine - The wine list arrives at your table. Don't panic. Ordering wine with dinner should be a pleasurable experience. Just remember these simple tips:
Most wine lists are grouped into broad categories - red and white, sparkling or dessert.
Rely on your waiter or the restaurant's wine steward. It's their job to ensure that your dining experience is enjoyable - which includes helping you select a wine.
Most people don't hesitate to inquire about an item on a menu. A wine list should be no different. Tell your waiter what you plan to order for dinner.
If cost is a factor, tell your waiter what you want to pay. That will narrow your choices, but focus your attention on the wines in your price range
Most bottles of wine contain five to six glasses. If you're with a large dinner party, consider ordering two bottles. Consider selecting two types.
