Although we love getting super dorky, sometimes we like to do a super practical podcast that you can take with you to the wine shop!

High alcohol naysayers be contradicted! If it\'s cold outside, you WANT high alcohol wines. So that\'s the kinds of wines I\'m recommending...with the caveat that they must be balanced and not just heat.

Suggestions include:

Whites: Oaked Chardonnay, Ch\\xe2teauneuf du Pape blanc and other Rh\\xf4ne blends, southern Italian whites, Soave, South African Chardonnay, and a surprising, dark horse Pinot Blanc from Germany.

Reds: Syrah from Swartland, Crozes-Hermitage, or Walla Walla, Washington, Mendocino Zinfandel, Malbec from Cahors, France, Monastrell from Jumilla, Rioja/Tempranillo, Amarone, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
