This article discusses the best wines to drink with friends and suggests wines for certain occasions. In fact whatever the occasion there will be a wine that is perfect for making sure your party is a big hit!

Rising Gas & Electricity prices!


So
you’re having a party? There is nothing worse than going to a party and being
given a bad tasting glass of wine. There is no excuse for this, and so this
article gives you a few ideas on what to serve your guests. There are, however,
always certain people (who will remain unnamed) who always bring their worst
bottle of wine to a party and drink everyone else’s whilst they are there.



 



Whatever
the type of party, be it a dinner party, a hen party or just a house party, the
best thing to start it off is a glass of sparkling wine. There is no need to
splash out on Champagne.
You can get a great bottle of cava that will be acceptable for everyone’s
palate at a decent price. To make it a little more special, you can add some
kirsch liqueur, cassis (or blackcurrant syrup) to it, which gives it a bit more
sweetness, offers the excitement of a new discovery, and also adds a bit of
colour, not to mention alcohol, to the drink.



 



For
summer parties, Sangria or fruit cup is good as a main drink. With the main
part of it made up of red wine, you can add different fruits and juices to make
it taste better. Your party will then be sure to swing – just make sure you
keep it topped up throughout the evening.



 



For
winter parties, a mulled wine is a great way to keep people warm and brings a
really lovely christmassy smell to the affair. A Christmas party just isn’t the
same without mulled wine warming in the kitchen.



 



For
all other parties, it is best to have a mixture of red and white wines; you can
add a rosé to the mixture for summer parties. A good way to select wines is to
look at an independent wine retailer online. Not only is it a good way to get a
great deal on your wine, but it is also offers you an idea of what types of
wine you like are in your price range, which wines are best for which occasion,
and also offers the best deals on new wines.



 



Another
summer idea for wine is to serve a rosé. Once seen as rather tacky and resigned
to the remit of some kind of 70’s time trap, rosé wines are now very
fashionable and very drinkable.
