Sparkling Icewine...the perfect wine for any occasion. – Ask The Wine Ladies

Dear Wine Ladies,

I was thinking of bringing a Vidal icewine to mark the occasion of a friend’s first movie role but then learned there are also sparkling icewines. What are they like and would this be an appropriate wine to bring? Are they served chilled like a regular white wine?

Dear Wine Ladies,

We're throwing a party over the holiday weekend to celebrate the move into our new home, which we have finally taken possession of. It's been a long while since we've entertained and are unsure as to how much wine to buy. Is there some kind of formula to figure out how much we will need?

Dear Wine Ladies,

We'll be lighting up the grill this Labor Day weekend and chilling with the whole family one last time before the leaves take a turn and the cooler nights descend upon us. We've got the menu set, Greek salad, grilled veggies including corn on the cob, chicken and barbeque ribs. To the wine, but which one? Mostly white wine drinkers we'd like to serve two whites, and one or two reds. Suggestions please?
