WINE SELECTION SUGGESTIONS
Selecting the right wine for the right occasion can
sometimes be a seemingly awkward or difficult task for
the beginning wine enthusiast. We would therefore like
to present you with a few suggestions which may provide a little more
confidence and enjoyment when choosing and serving your wines.
When selecting wines, keep an open mind and do
not be afraid to be adventurous. Do not view the
subject of wine so seriously it discourages you
from learning and discovering for fear of embar-
rassment if something is incorrect. Wine is best
viewed as a hobby and enjoyed.
When assembling your collection, try not to become
obsessed with “Vintages.” Although a chart can
provide itself as a useful tool, generalizations about
a specific year have led more than one collector to
disappointment. In many instances an “off year” will
provide a better value and more near term
drinking enjoyment.
The primary guideline to the subject of wine you need to follow is your
own palate. Do not be afraid to make mistakes. Experiment, discover,
but most of all, enjoy yourself and your new Wine Captain
