What grapes make a good red wine?

Top picks include the juicy, pithy and peppery Paço de Bispo from Palmela, south of Lisbon, and based on the white Castelão grape variety, and Hacienda Uvanis’ Garnacha Old Vines from high-altitude vines in Castilla y Léon, Spain, producing a fragrant and fruity red that’s equally at home with food or on its own.

Does finding great wine cost a great deal?

Finding great wine doesn’t need to cost a great deal. There’s a lot to love about a special occasion bottle of wine, like the First Growth Bordeaux you were gifted for your wedding, or the bottle of Champagne whose vintage is your birth year.
