What is the best wine?

Question

I am looking to use wine for cooking. I need a good dry white and red wine. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Hi, sometimes when cooking foods it is best not to use a dry wine. A perfect example of this is when I cook scallops, sometimes i like to saute them in a wine mixture. Here is what I mean, I mix 1 cup of Sutter Home Chardonnay, 2 cloves garlic, 2tablespoons butter, and 1/2 a lemon in a pot and saute them in that. I use Sutter Home because the wine gives the scallops a bit more character thanks to the wines' body and aroma. The wine also adds a lil more flavor to the scallops. I like to stay away from dry wines because they don't allow you to really experiment with food. Sometimes your best creations are made from food and wines you would not think would go well together. I really would suggest you try different wines before you settle on using dry wines. Also i would suggest doing some research as well. I will give you some links to help

I would like to make a suggestion for a good drinking wine it is called Cafe Zinfandel by E & J Gallo. This is really a good sit down and relax wine.

Hope this Helps & God Bless,

Chris

Answer 2

Economically speaking, the Australian wine with the label with a kangaroo makes a wine with 70% Cabernet and 30% Merlot. It tastes good.

Answer 4

Ahh. You don;t want to spend too much on it, as you are going for the flavor. I would recommend a fume Blanc of a pinot grigio.

If you are daring, try a dry champagne

For the reds, a merlot or a dry rose
