While  our moments of joy, sorrow, anger and peace, sometimes, they only get better with wine. Here\u2019s our list of 10 moments that are redefined with wine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>1. Diwali, Christmas, New Year and all such dinners<\/strong><br \/>\nLights, good food, and all that jazz. Wine is not  your guests only. It\u2019s more for you, for  over. Have a generous swig, throw your open door and let the festivities and small talk begin!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>2. Formal dos<\/strong><br \/>\nColleagues from all across the globe, whom you have only known through emails are now under one roof. Guest speakers, your boss, your boss\u2019s boss and the likes are hovering around the bar and you can\u2019t help but thank god for wine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">P.S.- Always ignore beer at formal gatherings. Opt for something classy!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>3. The lone me-time<\/strong><br \/>\nAt the end of a long day when the mind and body are pooped, all you want is a moment of quiet. Take a deep breath, heavy a long sigh and take a sip of that much needed solace.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>4. Dates. Yes, dates!<\/strong><br \/>\nHis place, her place or at the world\u2019s most romantic place. The only constant on a date is wine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>5. Cooking<\/strong><br \/>\nWhat if we told you that wine became an ingredient only after the chef spilled it in by mistake? Fortunately for the chef, the food tasted even better. Pastas or cakes, wine makes for great company while cooking and is the secret ingredient of many a fabulous dish.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>6. Screen time<\/strong><br \/>\nLet\u2019s be honest. We can\u2019t spend a spare moment without staring at a screen. Binge watching of shows, movie marathons, online shopping, browsing on Pinterest or stalking on Facebook are all made better with wine. (Please note: Keep the glass way out of reach when stalking exes)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>7. Attending A Wedding<\/strong><br \/>\nThis is sage advice. The way to survive a big fat Indian wedding is to be a little on the tipsier side. You\u2019ve always got car-o-bars, but it won\u2019t hurt to go prepared. One sip and you\u2019ve got your smile in place to dazzle any stranger or strange aunt.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>8. When the cocktail menu is depressing<\/strong><br \/>\nSometimes you want to experiment with your drinks and you end up asking for the cocktail menu. The list is long, depressing and confusing. Let\u2019s just say that the names and flavours are stressful. Change the plan and order wine. The fragrance and colour always feel like a familiar friend.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>9. TGIF <\/strong><br \/>\nThere\u2019s a reason why we thank god for Fridays. Bring in the weekend with your favourite people and favourite wine. This is the recipe for #NoFilter Instagram selfies and fun times.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>10. Long flights <\/strong><br \/>\nSome destinations take longer to arrive at. If you&#8217;re traveling for work or pleasure, wine gets us through all the long journeys up in the air.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Finally, to admit, wine is a reason in itself. You know those moments where you just feel like having wine? Yes, we\u2019re talking about those.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\tWe live in a time and age where everyone is busy playing &#039;catch up&#039;.
