What wine should I drink? — answered
- What wine should I drink tonight?
- It depends on what's on the table and the mood — a weeknight pasta wants something bright and easy, a steak wants a bold red, a celebration wants bubbles. Rather than guess, tell Paco what you're eating (or your budget) and he'll tell you exactly what he'd open.
- How do I know if a wine is worth the price?
- A wine is worth it when its quality and critic reputation justify what you're paying — a great wine at a bad price is still a bad buy. In restaurants, a 2–4× markup over retail is normal; well beyond that, you're overpaying. Paco checks real critic scores and fair retail prices and tells you instantly whether a bottle is a steal or a skip.
- What wine should I order at a restaurant?
- Order the bottle that gives you the most for your money and fits your meal — not the most expensive, and not the safe second-cheapest. Snap the wine list and Paco ranks it for you: best overall, best value, and the one to skip.
- Which wine should I buy as a gift?
- Champagne is the generous, safe default; otherwise match the recipient's taste and choose something with a real reputation rather than a flashy label. Send Paco the shelf or your budget and he'll tell you the bottle to grab and the one to leave behind.
- How do I read a restaurant wine list?
- Wine lists are usually grouped by colour, region, or style, listing producer, vintage, and price. The hard part isn't reading it — it's spotting which bottle is actually good value. Photograph it and Paco audits the whole list in seconds.
