Wine Recommendations Needed

I could use some help! I don’t typically drink alcohol, but I want to show my appreciation to someone who pet-sat my dog. She hasn’t revealed her wine preference—won’t say if she likes red or white—which makes it a bit tricky since she insists she doesn’t need any thanks for her kindness.

I’m thinking of getting both a red and a white wine for her to choose from, and I’ll leave them at my place for her.

Could you please recommend some universally loved wines? I’d appreciate suggestions for both red and white options, ideally in the mid-range price point (since I’m also compensating her for the pet sitting). Thanks so much!

One thought on “Wine recommendations”

  1. That’s a thoughtful gesture! Here are some recommendations for both red and white wines that tend to be crowd-pleasers and are generally well-received:

    Red Wines:
    1. Malbec – A rich and fruity choice that’s very popular. Look for options from Argentina, like Alamos Malbec, which is often both approachable and affordable.
    2. Pinot Noir – A versatile option that is lighter than most reds but still flavorful. Meiomi Pinot Noir is a great choice, offering a nice balance of fruit and spice.
    3. Cabernet Sauvignon – A classic option with bold flavors. Look for a mid-range bottle like Josh Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon, which is widely loved.

    White Wines:
    1. Sauvignon Blanc – Crisp and refreshing. Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand is a fantastic pick with bright citrus notes.
    2. Chardonnay – A smooth choice that many enjoy. Consider Sonoma-Cutrer Russian River Ranches Chardonnay, which has a nice balance of fruit and acidity.
    3. Pinot Grigio – Light and easy to drink. Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio is a popular favorite that often appeals to many palates.

    These selections should give her a good variety to choose from, and you’ll be covered for any preference she might have. Enjoy treating her to these wines!
