Pour

Maybe your friends are having a barbecue, and you'd like to bring over the perfect wine for grilled meat. Or you might like to know which variety of wine would compliment the Indian take-out you're enjoying at home. Pour, the only wine shop which exclusively focuses on food-wine pairings, is just the place for you! Wines are helpfully categorized into Bubbly, Crisp, Mellow, Plush, Bright, Velvety, Bold, Sweet, and Spirits. Categories include tips on optimal food pairings (oysters need a bubbly like Laurent Perrier Brut) and even food preparations (pan-seared meat goes well with a velvety Charbono "Villa Andriana" Summers red).

Are you still wondering about how to accompany your spicy Indian curry? Try a bold red wine with flavors of fruit, coffee and licorice: the 2003 Condado de Haza.

Pour: Amsterdam at 75th St., (212) 501-POUR.
