Interesting idea about the 12 days of Christmas. I’m not sure if I could come up with all 12 myself, but maybe I’ll give it a try on the run-up to the holiday.

I believe holiday meals provide an opportunity for those less experienced to discover wine and understand it better. I’ve been checking the blogs and have enjoyed seeing everyone’s suggestions.

Looking ahead, I have seen several articles built around the common Christmas metaphor - 12 Wines of Christmas - and found it an entertaining approach to offer some suggestions to select and buy the best wines for a holiday dinner.

For the novice, I enjoyed http://www.100bestwines.com/articles/the12winesofchristmas.htm approach, since I feel there are many people that miss out on the enjoyment of wine because they fear choosing incorrectly or see choosing a wine as snobbish endeavor.

For what it’s worth, I’m having a Zinfandel with my Thanksgiving turkey.
