In our fifth chapter on Wine, we thought it might be helpful to take several steps back and give you some “wine basics” to make wine more approachable - from ordering in a restaurant to selecting in a store. We’re going to debunk some myths, give you tools to know what a wine will taste like, understand the four “V’s” of wine – Varietal, Vineyard, Vintage and Vintner and how to read a label. Stay tuned over the coming weeks. Shinsei 1/2 price Bottle Wine Mondays.
