With the festive week currently underway, the parties are never-ending and New Year's Eve is going to be no different. While there will be a lavish spread of food, there is also going to be some spirits. With wine becoming more popular over the years, people are going to need a guide on how to choose the perfect wine for the occasion.

If you are wondering how to go about it, then Indian wine experts say you have to keep it simple. Gorakh Gaikwad, winemaker and COO at Sula Vineyards, says, "Choosing the right wine can truly elevate your celebrations. For a classic pairing, The Source Sauvignon Blanc is an excellent choice to complement light appetisers like bruschetta or fresh salads.



For heartier mains, such as roasted meats or rich gravies, Rasa Shiraz offers the perfect balance of boldness and complexity. And if you're looking to add a touch of sparkle to your celebrations, The Source Moscato is perfect for toasts and desserts." On the other hand, Sumit Jaiswal, chief operating officer at Grover Zampa Vineyards, says it is important to choose a wine that matches the emotion of the moment and evokes a memory.

"A sparkling wine is always a good start to start the celebrations and one can try the Grover Soiree and LA Réserve sparkling." While there are many different kinds of wines, Jaiswal adds that off dry style of wine are usually preferred for the Indian palate but tastes and preferences are also evolving.
