Wine is a delicacy that can be enjoyed on any day ending with –y. It’s a perfect pairing for dinners, get-togethers or maybe you just need to take the edge off a long day.

People tend to look at wine with utmost respect, not just a way to get drunk. NationalDrinkWineDay.org describes the positive benefits of wine such as new friends, reduced risk of heart disease and the enhancement of food and life. Now, it’s never usually the question of whether you drink wine or not, but rather the color you chose – red versus white. Two very distinct types, each perfect for different people and different occasions.

This comparison between the two could go on forever, but let’s keep it to a simple satirical five, plus take a look at the basic nutritional facts.

In the end, it’s still just wine, which many experts say promotes longevity and carries heart healthy benefits. What more could you ask for from an alcoholic beverage?

So whether you’re a red or white kind of person, call together with some of your closest friends and bond over a few glasses. The wine gods would be honored.
