This holiday season means we will all be doing a lot of entertaining , or attending parties with our friends – and that means you'll want to impress the oenophiles in your life with the best glass of wine.

For a tutorial on the best wines to go with your Christmas dinner, or the ones that would make the best gifts, we were joined this morning by wine expert Ron Breitstein.

Here is some more information on the wines he showed us:

• Iron Horse Classic Vintage Brut (Green Valley of Russian River Valley, Sonoma, CA) - $30
• Domaine Specht Pinot Gris (Alsace, France) – $15
• Frank Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley, CA) - $40
