4 things to do in Atlanta today: Taste 10 wines for $10

With a Bordeaux glass and Burgundy glass, you’ve got all your wine serving needs met. A fishbowl shape Burgundy glass, like the two in back, handles pinot noir, other delicate reds and chardonnay. A straight-sided, tapering at top Bordeaux glass, like those in front, is for everything else: big reds, dry whites, rieslings, dessert wines and sparkling wines. (E.
