Not an Italian is is it's Wednesday and we drink lots of wine and so why not flying with me Wednesday and Erica -- Cheney is here with us Italian as well lifestyle host -- love that little title.
But there's we -- you then that -- -- you are the host of and I was watching clips of your little show kids face HDTV program kids based.
Airs every Friday at 830 and your spokesperson for TR I laser hair might -- a lot -- -- Americas -- American showcase dot com your comments -- you've been busy since the apprentice and believe that the president -- was 2004.
Why is it feels like it you -- -- doesn't like it did it totally open doors for you.
It did you know I was actually but we're not marketing before hand or cosmetic company and I'd never expect CE NTV.
But I'm here and I love it.
And it's a lot of fun it did and how did you become this place out person.
You know I I started having kids beast I have -- I love for food and dining in into teeny.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- My parents are restaurant -- -- I was incredibly intimidated by wine.
I I couldn't take my well my way to a one -- -- -- coming that was a problem it's really talk about.
Are often because there's -- has been in the past.
They snobbish standoffish.
Feeling given to those of us that don't have a clue as to why -- and this -- I did have a clip.
In fact I'm glad I'm I'm glad -- changing although they're still a lot of stuff that people don't understand.
And I and I think I think these are legitimate is like the first common mistake people -- you say.
Is to this year yes serving your -- at the long temperatures a huge mistake often white wine is served to cold and red wine is served to warm and there's a problem there -- they both affect the taste of the wind negatively right.
The eastern and white wines too cold milk -- -- -- the -- yeah he's gonna ask you exactly because the delicate flavors in the white wine are hitting by the -- out.
And -- with your warm one I would direct one tip to warm it it doesn't retain its case of these cities so the -- -- starts to -- flabby in your mouth so how do you not.
Yeah we you have to that we basically -- -- so you know you wanna serve your red lines.
Any warmer than about 65 degrees Fahrenheit and sexy -- about half and that there's -- -- -- camp because gonna depend on your varietal and you're you know.
The -- all sorts of things.
-- your -- anywhere between 45 and fifty degrees.
Now I just need to know that I I have to think I'm doing is -- -- really was in the dark about all this stuff find.
I'm lucky to have a really good friend who has a high degree and test the kind of she's actually hear me today that she really she made -- success with me when I was with I had so much fun as it just kind of Clooney -- -- I was gonna.
And she did a good but so let's say a decent read it 65 to -- that -- -- just me -- -- -- in your wine fridge in theory it's probably more like 55.
Which is why then when you and the -- got to -- sick.
We'll also that is the maximum a case the true you're right it's somewhere between about I think it's like fifty something to 65 is aware -- wide range there.
But it -- at the moment that it it's served our stored anywhere above 65.
Is was gonna start to each prematurely again but that all goes to hold grieving process -- -- -- right very cute very yes okay this is another thing that I love is.
Pouring it yeah how much Asian morning it's classic that's different though is I think most of us know enough to support to the Graham right right your system failure red light.
Red wine to about a third of your white half and -- sparkling three quarters now this is more than just because the one -- face out this is because.
There's actually science behind you talking about the aeration now you really want to be able to -- that line to area to -- that carbon dioxide come out of that line.
Then the order related to -- that he can really smelled as the Romans to kind of unknown about the tenants and there's there's science behind us so with the read the -- opening lesson is because it needs more room right and you want to be able this argument that it's telling you want the brand -- -- -- -- swirling really is.
Part of the experience that's -- -- yet to the class is not a yeah that well again for the same reason -- you know we hear you have that open grant with your red glasses and a more narrow brand with that with your white wine glasses.
But your -- white wines when -- -- -- have condensing a subtle flavors and your red line answer your reading an opening up.
So again it's all science so nothing I know we even thought of seeing more and more like the all purpose wine -- yeah.
I mean -- it could you know -- while he needed the red -- read the dark -- visit any of it but there's thousands -- -- -- -- last you can have.
They need all I really know I mean the end of the -- we're talking about you want it wine should be fine like okay this is what this is about.
It should be there's lots of -- out there like the ones that I have here right now that are affordable accessible and wonderful wines.
And for the same reason you know you -- have to have a whole closet apple had a dedicated to wine glasses you know make it -- make it fun brain enhancing -- Manhattan and in the -- now OK so let's talk about choosing a -- -- has brought some good ones yes I've got a case of cheesy line if you are the closely yes I had a party never really could -- -- -- when you're having dinner party.
I didn't know it's a safe start to speak -- was all the way aren't serious during her appetizers start -- -- really nice -- reach out.
Okay they -- it degree it retails at nine dollars.
Fantastic it's a really nice kind of -- -- Yeah easy easy for everyone to kind of taking on then when -- moving on -- your entree course.
I go with a and it you know why -- so wonderful about that is that you're not gonna over power a chicken or fish -- Like you would with a heavy cat -- heavy caveat Annie you've got something a little bit hard hearing and you can go for.
My zinfandel not the airports -- -- Is a wonderful option the benefit loaded -- and zinfandel.
And the great thing about this -- and number one selling zinfandel.
In the country so it -- -- line it's seven dollars it's easy really think -- Again and I think we got to start thinking that wind is accessible it's affordable.
-- -- -- -- -- And the -- got we've actually talked to the Gallo family about this has got -- this is Scott I was so hot yeah.
Why I want to bring us got and as a as a gift to an especially Abigail and the bit vineyards has got to because.
You know what -- -- -- line people who who don't drink wine.
-- -- -- -- -- -- and it eats he goes with so many things I like to bringing up a little -- when I'm heading to dinner party because they bring favorite dessert.
And I bring my -- I know everybody's happy.
It's it's it's an easy line is that in theory what you're having with desert the -- when I have a nice rich dessert I'll take who's got a I have a -- -- -- -- -- from Scott out.
And also you know I think it's like the the fastest growing -- in the country right -- yes sales were up at 90% last year I think.
Because -- as he says I as the Gateway -- I think it's pulling in the kids it is.
It's interesting I think there's a Gallup poll out in ninth 2011 that -- -- -- they asked Americans would you most often drink.
Beer wine.
All -- -- and for the first time in two decade great beer and -- we're tied.
Right for first place where previously -- was always he'll be in line with a distant second.
It doesn't interest me that kids and college Argentine wine -- -- well that's it never did we Zheng sheet it was really isn't -- -- was -- thought it was too expensive.
