How low can the bar go?

As it turns out, pretty damn low.

As seen on the internet:
"White Zinfandel (Whyt ZIN-fan-dell) Made from the Zinfandel grapes. Usually sweet, fruity, crisp and fresh."
I appreciate the effort but if your target audience needs pronunciation guides for not just the word 'zinfandel' but the word 'white' as well, maybe you've got bigger problems than you think.

Check out this glossary for other 'really-hard-to-pronounce' words like:
Merlot (Mare-LOW),
Syrah (Seer-rah), and
Chardonnay (Shar-done-NAY).

Also available is a wealth of knowledge like food pairings:
Pizza

Barbera (as in the second half of the cartoon people)
Cabernet Franc
Chardonnay
Gamay Beaujolais
Gewürztraminer
Merlot
Mourvèdre
Sauvignon Blanc
Syrah
Zinfandel
And even pick up some recipe ideas like this one for Clam Puffs.

MMM, MMM, Good!

Nothing says 'Welcome to my Home' like a glass of Arbor Mist Peach Chardonnay and a tray of piping hot Clam Puffs.

Sweet.
