OK folks, I'm baring my soul/ignorance, but can anybody really tell the difference whether I use a cup of white wine or a cup of red wine or half and half? I'm making dinner tonight and I just discovered that I have about half a cup of pinot grigio white and a bottle of pinot noir red. I am not a chef and without good instructions I'm at a loss. This is a good recipe that I have made many times but never used red wine in it. I suppose this thread should be closed after dinner time tonight because any responses (if any) will have answered my question and any after that will just be informational. Of course, I appreciate any opinions if I live through dinner.
Thanks in advance for helping me save my partially prepared dinner. I don't want to wait till tomorrow because the vegetables are sliced and the Italian sausage is thawed out and the parmesan cheese is already grated.
