\"What<\/p>\n

Wine & Sign Pairings<\/b><\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Aries \u2192 Malbec. <\/b>Courageous and confident, Aries\u2019 aren\u2019t afraid to be bold \u2014 just like Malbec. The deep and intense flavors in this red classic are a great match for the firey and spicy personality of an Aries.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Taurus \u2192 Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape. <\/b>Chic, sophisticated, strong \u2014 these are all words that can easily describe both a tough Taurus and a bottle of CDP. Taurus\u2019 have a passion for the finer things in life, making this high-end varietal a top choice.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Gemini \u2192 Champagne. <\/b>Geminis can show a variety of emotions and personalities that go from sour to sweet. However, this lovable character is always social and endearing \u2014 just like the similarly versatile crowd-pleasing classic, Champagne.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Cancer \u2192 Merlot. <\/b>A Cancer is protective, loyal, and will do whatever it takes to help people and make everyone they love happy. Merlot is similarly strong and cherished by many, making these two an ideal match.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Leo \u2192 Shiraz.<\/b> Like a delicious glass of Shiraz, a Leo is always happy to shine in the spotlight. These decisive yet playful fire signs love being the center of attention, like Shiraz typically is at gatherings, and have a contagious optimism.<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. Virgo \u2192 Sauvignon Blanc. <\/b>Virgos like when things are done right the first time, so they\u2019re never disappointed with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc. They\u2019re studious and grounded while remaining reliable and gentle, making this smooth and traditional wine a wonderful fit.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  7. Libra \u2192 Riesling. <\/b>Like the sweet yet simple Riesling, Libras are extremely balanced. Fair and suave like this light wine, Libras work very well with others and tend to bring people together.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  8. Scorpio \u2192 Pinot Noir. <\/b>Passionate and motivated, Scorpios don\u2019t like to waste time. A rich bottle of Pinot Noir has the same integrity and complexities as the misunderstood Scorpio, making them a viable duo.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  9. Sagittarius \u2192 Cabernet Franc. <\/b>The blunt, clear-thinking, and intellectual Sagittarius is always up for an adventure. Cabernet Franc boasts international flavors, taking these fire signs on an unforgettable journey.<\/span><\/li>\n
  10. Capricorn \u2192 Cabernet Sauvignon. <\/b>The ambitious and hardworking Capricorn will do anything to get to the top…and at the top is a big glass of Cabernet. Like this rich red wine, Capricorns are deep, traditional, and serious. They also love a classic, hearty meal \u2014 so pair this wine with a steak to see them at their happiest.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  11. Aquarius \u2192 Orange Wine. <\/b>The Aquarius is one in the same with Orange Wine \u2014 unique and unpredictable. Like this one-of-a-kind wine, Aquarius\u2019 are eccentric, independent, and like to stand apart from the pack.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  12. Pisces \u2192 Ros\u00e9. <\/b>Pisces\u2019 are extremely creative, artistic, and in touch with their emotions. Their compassionate, good-natured, and romantic qualities pair perfectly with a light and fruity glass of pink ros\u00e9.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Sipping With the Zodiac<\/b><\/h3>\n

    And there you have it: all of our top wine pairings for each star sign! Now, we know that this may not be accurate every time (maybe you\u2019re a Libra who doesn\u2019t love the sweetness of Riesling), but hopefully it inspires you to try or start to casually drink a new type of wine you wouldn\u2019t have normally picked up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    And if you don\u2019t like the wine that matches with your sign, don\u2019t be afraid to try the recommendation from the sign before or after yours \u2014 you Geminis and Cancers may have more similar tastes than you think!<\/span><\/p>\n
