Think of this as a refresher course on the basics of wine. Want to know why you should swirl and sniff before tasting? Check. Want a reminder about the best temperature to serve a cabernet? Check. Host Daenna Van Mulligen will round up the usual suspects -- Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Cabernet, and a few of their friends -- and lead a blind tasting to illustrate how to recognize varietals based on clues such as their appearance, fragrance, and taste. She'll also give you the skinny on Old and New World differences, regional strengths, food pairings, and more. Go go Gadget corkscrew!
