During the 12 Days of Christmas, the foodies at Chop on the Block will be featuring a holiday recipe. We hope you enjoy our selections.

On this third day of Christmas, we'd like to share a few helpful links and tips on how to pair red wine as a complement to your holiday meal.

• We strongly suggest that you try "The Tillerman", a bold 2003 vintage red from Hook & Ladder Winery. This fabulous wine hails from the Russian River Valley in California and features a unique blend of Cabernet Sauv, Cab Franc and Sangiovese. The aroma is strong yet pleasant and the wine has a reddish tone. On first taste, you'll enjoy the fresh and rich red fruit flavor. Cost about $17 at fine wine retailers nationwide. For more details, please visit hookandladderwinery.com

• The About.com Wine Guide has posted a terrific selection of versatile reds that are sure to enhance your Christmas gathering.

• Lastly, if you would prefer to serve non-alcoholic beverages at your holiday dinner, the Food Network has sophisticated options for non-drinkers.
