Alpana's Recommendations for wines that can be enjoyed without food:

• Susana Balbo Crios Torrontes - "For an aperitif white, this Torrontes is really nice with or without food.  It's light, crisp and refreshing with floral notes."
• Chateau de la Chaize Brouilly - "For an aperitif red, I would suggest a Gamay which is similar in style to a Pinot Noir but with more floral notes.  It's light in body so you don't need food to support it and is also enjoyable with a slight chill to make the fruit more pronounced."

Alpana's Recommendations for wines to be enjoyed with food:

• Castle Rock Chardonnay Central Coast - "It has a much richer buttery flavor that works better with food, especially creamy pastas or cheesy dishes."
• Badia a Coltibuono Chianti Classico - "I find that most Italian reds taste better with food because it fits the Italian philosophy of enjoying wine and dinner."
