Best Australian Red & White Sparkling Wines

Choosing wine for a party begins before that last minute rush to the grocery store. Some wines work well with warm foods, while others pair nicely with cold buffet foods. Knowing which kind of party you will have and what is on your menu can help you pick the wines to compliment your food choices.

Though there are many different ways in which the types of wine can be classified, one of the most common ways is by the portion of the meal with which it was intended to be served. This method of categorization is a no-brainer and ensures that you will be able to pick a type of wine for every occasion.

When choosing a wine for a party, take your time to pick some that you enjoy or that at the very least are generally popular. If you are unsure about which wines are popular, try asking your friends what they enjoy drinking. A reputable wine merchant can often point out which bottles are fashionable, but make sure that he is not simply trying to unload the cheap (or the too-expensive) stuff on an unwitting buyer.

Remember, your guests will probably enjoy the wines you select whether they are complex and expensive or relatively simple and less expensive!

Main dish wines are typically either white wines or red wines. Though both work well with main courses, each works better with different dishes. Typically, white wines go best with fowl, white meats, and sea food. They can range from being very sweet to somewhat dry, and are best served chilled.

Red wines, on the other hand, are always fairly dry and are best served with spaghetti, red meats, and any food that is strongly seasoned. Both red wines and white wines typically contain 10-14% alcohol, as they are served with the main course and meant to have a lighter taste.

For formal occasions, it is common for sparkling wines to be served. These types of wines are sweet and best served as either an appetizer wine or a dessert wine. Popular sparkling wines include: Blanc de Noir, Champagne, Blanc de Blanc, and Spumante.
