Type Of Wine

What’s a good type of wine to bring to a potluck holiday party?
There’ll be lots of appetizers, and lots of desserts, so I don’t really know. I think the hostess like white zinfandel, I like pinot grigio, but I’m thinking I might be better off with a red wine. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
White Zin? Oh gross.
If you’re bringing the wine to a party, show some respect for the hostess by bringing something nice and unique. Go to your local wine shop – one that actually has a sommelier on staff – and ask for a unique recommendation. I like getting wine for parties that has a unique story … I have one in particular from this great little winery in Napa that was named after the winery dog, and his picture is even on the label. The sommelier who recommended it to me told me this great story, that I was able to talk about at the event.
So, you get your wine AND a nice ice breaker / conversation piece. Just be sure to get something different, that perhaps no one has ever had before.
