Dear Wine Ladies,
I am hosting a wine and cheese bridal shower for my daughter and am not very familiar with wine information. There will be approximately 40 women. I would like to serve a variety of wines but have no idea what kind of wines I should buy. Can you offer me some suggestions?
Dear Wine Ladies,
Does the “nose” of a wine just mean its smell or is it more complicated than that?

Dear Wine Ladies,
As a true fan of red wine how it pains me to see my wife missing out on all the fabulous Cabernets, Shiraz’s and Malbecs out there for the tasting! Unfortunately she doesn’t see it, or taste it that way! I find myself often giving in and opting for the Chardonnay or the Pinot Grigio… again. Are there any red wines in particular that a novice red wine drinker might be more likely to enjoy?

Dear Wine Ladies,
This may sound like a silly question but I’m truly at odds on the best way to deal with a crumbly cork! Last night, once again, while trying to open a bottle of wine the cork was dry and crumbly. The harder I tried, and the further I drove the cork screw, the more the cork crumbled and then finally ended up in fragments in the bottle. Is there a way to properly extract a crumbly cork? I’m throwing a big birthday bash and don’t want to be fussing with floating cork! Thanks Wine Ladies!

Ho, Ho, Ho and Merry Christmas everyone! This week our annual Christmas radio show was filled with holiday music, great spirits and laughter, lots of snow outside and of course Christmas presents for all of out listeners out there in radio land.
Dear Wine Ladies,
What is the indentation at the bottom of Champagne bottles called and is its purpose to strengthen the bottle?

Dear Wine Ladies
As a lover of very basic foods, I am most grateful to a friend of mine who just introduced me to one of her favorites, tempura. I’d like to be able to offer her a glass of wine the next time we have it, but I’m a beer drinker myself, and have no idea what to buy. Any suggestions would be appreciated, preferably not too expensive or overpowering. The last few times we’ve been together she’s ordered red wine – are there any reds that would also be appropriate?

Dear Wine Ladies,
Eggs are always on the menu in some shape or form when I’m brunch entertaining. Are there any white wines that would make for a good pairing?
Kyle
Dear Wine Ladies,
Over the next couple of weeks I will be inviting several clients out for dinner as a thank you for their business. I’m a little new to this and would like to know how I should handle ordering the wine, particularly because of my limited budget. I’m afraid if I ask the sommelier I might get stuck with a bill I really can’t afford.

Dear Wine Ladies,
What is the name of the grape that originated in southern France and goes by “cot” in that region? It is a very dark, almost black grape. Thanks Wine Ladies.
