When power has been restored, replug the power cord into the AC outlet. WINE TIPS AND HINTS When choosing wine, take advantage of the knowledge of the personnel in the wine store as well as reviews of wines from wine publications. The price of a wine is not necessarily indicative of relative quality. Very good wines can be purchased at comfortable-for-the-wallet prices. When you find a comfortably priced wine, purchase in quantity to have on hand as your "house wine." Keep it chilled in your Cuisinart™ Dual Zone Private Reserve® Wine Cellar and be ready for any occasion. Pairing wine with food has really become a matter of personal taste - the rules are no longer hard and fast that white wine is paired only with fish or light meats and red wine is paired only with red meats. A Pinot Noir can complement a grilled fish just as well as it complements a grilled fillet of beef. What needs to be kept in mind is the personality of the wine itself, the preparation of the foods, and the tastes of those who will be enjoying them. You may want to open a bottle each of red and white and allow your guests to choose. The wine should please the diner, and never overpower or fight with the food with which it is served. Likewise, the food should not overpower or fight with the wine. Wine is a part of healthy living - the USDA's guidelines are based upon the "Mediterranean diet." They include wine in moderation - for women this is one glass per day and two glasses per day for men. A glass size is 4 ounces. The difference in gender amount is based upon body size. As for cooking with wine - never cook with a wine that you would not drink! 6
