As the designated Wine Guy in my circle of friends, I frequently receive messages or DMs from friends, family, and acquaintances inquiring about various bottles, or a quick snapshot of a wine list accompanied by a simple plea: “Help!” It’s a heavy burden to bear the crown.
However, the reality is that wine doesn’t have to be overly intricate. In my role at Bon Appétit, my main goal is to assist people in feeling more at ease when selecting wine and to trust their instincts. In my experience, wine isn’t this daunting entity. Ideally, it complements an already fantastic meal as an exclamation point. For me and the Bon Appétit crew, it serves as a reason to spend even greater moments around the dining table.
With that meal in mind, we’ve put together an online wine shop tailored for those who love to entertain, cook, dine, and sip. Consider the Bon Appétit Wine Shop as a delightful voyage across the globe. We’ve collaborated with wine experts and vineyards from areas like France’s Loire Valley and Alsace, to South Africa’s Western Cape, to Paso Robles in California, to present bottles eagerly waiting to be shared at your next dinner gathering.
You will discover everything from a bright Sicilian white wine (sustainably sourced, naturally) that pairs beautifully with seafood, to a rich Spanish red perfect for braised short ribs. Or perhaps you just require something traditional to enjoy with a store-bought rotisserie chicken. To that end, we’ve maintained our emphasis on food compatibility, acidity, body, and flavor, to enhance your drinking experience. Just set the table and serve.
This is more than just wine. It’s Bon Appétit, in every glass.
