But there&#8217;s a catch: you&#8217;re not an expert and you don&#8217;t want to disappoint your friends and spoil the evening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don&#8217;t panic, thanks to this guide you&#8217;ll be able to find what you&#8217;re looking for, whatever the situation, and you&#8217;ll look like a true connoisseur!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>For a chic dinner<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\nYou&#8217;ve been invited to a rather classy dinner party, the food promises to be succulent, so the wine must follow suit in terms of quality. For this occasion, we&#8217;re offering a classic that always makes an impact: <strong>Champagne Charles Heidsieck Blanc de Blancs Brut<\/strong>. 100% Chardonnay, this exceptional champagne reveals a floral, fruity nose of vine peach and lime blossom. Its pale, crystalline golden yellow color reveals a fresh palate with good tension and a well-balanced finish. (Available at \u20ac53.3 from Twil).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>For a dinner among bon vivants<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\nOn the program: p\u00e2t\u00e9 and rillettes, entrec\u00f4te frites, and a good dose of laughter. Tonight, no headaches, just lively discussions on a variety of subjects until the early hours. To stay in shape, there&#8217;s only one solution: sip! And for that, what better than <strong>Domaine Gramenon&#8217;s &#8220;Il Fait Soif&#8221; vintage<\/strong> (2019). This blend of Grenache and Syrah unveils aromas of candied black fruits and sweet spices to offer a fresh, fruity palate. It takes a lot of willpower to stop drinking once you&#8217;ve started! (Available at \u20ac15.2 from Twil).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>For an organic bobo dinner<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n&#8220;Do you realize that since we bought second-hand bikes on the bon coin, L\u00e9a and I feel much closer to nature! We&#8217;re even thinking of moving to the provinces to have a garden and even a chicken coop&#8230; Paris is too anxiety-provoking&#8221;. You&#8217;ve prepared yourself for Hugo&#8217;s speeches, accompanied by organic vegetables from the greengrocer downstairs in his apartment on rue des Abbesses. There&#8217;s no question of him drinking anything other than organic! For that, a little 100% Chenin nugget in Anjou PDO: <strong>Patrick Baudouin&#8217;s &#8220;Effusion&#8221; cuv\u00e9e<\/strong> (2018 vintage). A floral nose and a full-bodied palate with a predominance of white fruits, a magnificent wine from aperitif to dessert. (Available from \u20ac19.9 on the Internet).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>For a connoisseur&#8217;s dinner<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\nTonight, no bluffing, you&#8217;re invited to Nico&#8217;s. His brother is a wine merchant, and his passion is fine wines. Dinner will be tasty, but with no fuss: we&#8217;re here above all to enjoy quality products. You&#8217;re sure to enjoy a fine piece of beef as a main course. After a rather light wine to start with, you take it to the next level and there you pull out a dynamite: <strong>&#8220;L&#8217;Aurage&#8221;, from the Mitjavile family&#8217;s eponymous estate<\/strong> (2016 vintage). This blend of Merlot and Cabernet-franc offers a nose of red fruits and black olives. Its complexity is characterized by a supple mouthfeel and silky tannins. This wine is a nugget of which not a single taste should be wasted. (Available at \u20ac43.5 from Twil).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>For a dinner that&#8217;s sure to turn into a party<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\nThe nightclubs have just reopened. Tonight, you&#8217;re ready to party &#8217;til late, and keep the gin topping going once you hit the dance floor. But first, your friends organize a small, unpretentious dinner to get the night off to a good start. Serrano ham, Pata Negra, pan con tomate&#8230; your buddies are planning tapas so you don&#8217;t get a full belly for the rest of the evening. Now&#8217;s your chance to treat yourself to a red Sancerre! <strong>Cuv\u00e9e &#8220;Petite Moussi\u00e8re&#8221;<\/strong> (2019 vintage) from <strong>Alphonse Mellot<\/strong> will go perfectly with these dishes, with its fruity nose of cherry and strawberry and its full-bodied, fleshy cherry flavors. A fruity Pinot Noir to set the mood for the rest of the evening. (Available at \u20ac20.5 from Twil).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>For a dinner party where you want to impress<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\nOn the evening menu: show-offs. It&#8217;s a kind of cockfight you&#8217;re preparing for. Don&#8217;t fool anyone, everyone will quickly understand your rivalry with Luc over the beautiful eyes of a guest you both just met last week. So tonight is your chance to show that you know what you&#8217;re talking about. We offer you a wine that will delight every palate and whose label will announce its quality. <strong>Nicolas Joly<\/strong> &#8216;s <strong>&#8220;Le Vieux Clos&#8221; cuv\u00e9e<\/strong> (2017 vintage) from his legendary Coul\u00e9e de Serrant vineyard is a most noble Chenin. Its deep golden yellow color, rich floral and white flower aromas, and mineral, aromatic and harmonious palate are the hallmarks of this wine. A mythical estate celebrated by Louis XI and Louis XIV alike, you&#8217;ll have the opportunity to recount the many anecdotes of this estate steeped in history over this divine juice and a fine white meat.

You only dream of your bed. Well, drink water!
