Most wine lists you’ll come across will feature the following grapes (in order from lightest to fullest in body and color): Pinot Noir, Merlot, Zinfandel, Syrah/Shiraz, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Choose wines that are relatively young and can match well with food or drink well on their own. So you’ll know what to buy when you’re entertaining or when you’re at the restaurant, we’ve provided the basics of red wine:Be Better Guys: Red Wine

Reds That Drink Well on Their Own: Opt for lighter or medium grapes like Pinot Noir or Merlot when choosing a red wine you can drink on its own, either at a party, mid-afternoon or before dinner.  While these go well with the right foods, they aren’t overpowering.  We recommend the following:   

  • Walnut Creek Merlot (Chile)
  • Jacobs Creek Merlot (Australia)
  • Echelon Pinot Noir (U.S.)
  • Pepperwood Pinot Noir (U.S.)
  • Estancia Pinot Noir (U.S.)

  • Take your suit to the cleaners only if you get a serious stain. Instead, clean small stains by hand and hang it outside to air out.
  • Cell phones off every time you step into a meeting, movie theater, or restaurant.
  • All underpants with holes are no longer clothes and are now rags.
