wine for cooking? As a store clerk with basic knowledge of wine as i do my best to help customers some people will look at me an say is there anybody who knows about wine?
 
What you need to do, is start reading the labels of the wine and start drinking it. buy a bottle or two a week. Read the label, match it up if you can with what the label says. You will start to taste the "buttery" or the "chocolate" . When I started working at a liquor store, I only drank red wine. Someone would come in ask for a good white wine. I would say... Is there? I realized that wasn't good for sales, so I started revisiting the whites. And a found a few I do like.

In short, read the labels and try them.
 
If you were to pick a real cheap wine ? It could ruin a meal. Cheap wines are often very acid and sour. If these costumers had any knowledge in wine they would not need help.
When I buy a wine ? I certainly do not need help,because I know how to pick a wine. Theses people are just trying to show off by cooking with wine and do not know jack ! Clerc in a store does what he can. If they want luxury ? they should go to appropriate places and pay for the service.
I say # scr..them ! #
