Drink What You Like: A No-Snob Holiday Wine Guide with Nick The Wine Guy

In this episode of Wait — What Do You Do Again?, I’m joined by my yap partner, Matt Jones, and returning guest Nick “the Wine Guy” Elliot, a certified sommelier and chef who makes wine feel approachable, inclusive, and fun.

We talk about how to think through choosing wine for holiday dinners and parties, what to bring as a host gift (and what to say when you hand it over), and easy wine pairings for rich, comfort-food menus. Nick also shares practical tips for building a crowd-pleasing wine table, navigating boxed and screw-top wines without judgment, and offering thoughtful non-alcoholic options so everyone feels included.

Whether I’m hosting for the holidays, an intimate dinner, or just trying not to buy based on a pretty label in the wine aisle, this conversation will help you feel more confident and more relaxed heading into the season. If you’re looking for holiday hosting tips, wine pairing guidance, and a no-snob approach to entertaining, this episode is for you.
