Still undecided on what wine to have with lunch tomorrow, but this 96 Vouvray is hitting the spot tonight.pic.twitter.com/crGt0MQoPZ

This is a really difficult question to answer in a tweet. You often hear that you should just drink a lot of wine and figure out what you like, but that wasn’t helpful for me. I found it much more fulfilling to pick a region and learn a lot about it (read books, blogs etc) while
drinking a range of different wines at different price points. I also think it is genuinely helpful to try some of the top wines in the region to experience the full range, whereas common wisdom seems to be to stick to the mid-range wines that offer the best value.

If you like cabernet and dry reds then Bordeaux is a good place to start. It’s simple enough to be understandable but complex enough to have interesting stuff to discover. It has some of the top wines in the world, but apart from the premier crus they are all pretty well priced.

"Difficult to answer" for sure, but a damn good one as always. Any Bordueax wines in particular you'd recommend as part of the region's "greatest hits"?
