You order rosé no matter the time of year.(01 of11)
Open Image ModalIt's classy and respectable to order rosé in the height of summer. It's just plain wrong to order it with a hearty meal in the dead of winter. We hate to say it, but people will probably judge you for being totally oblivious to seasons if you take this route. (credit:Annabelle Breakey via Getty Images)
You order red wine with seafood.(02 of11)
Open Image ModalYou order white wine. Always. Without exception.(03 of11)
Open Image ModalRed wine gives you a headache, or you just don't like the stuff. It's cool. Unfortunately you may get perceived as being unadventurous and possibly even vain. The sad truth is that drinking white wine exclusively automatically makes you a Real Housewife. Sorry, we don't make the rules. We just write 'em. (credit:Brian Macdonald via Getty Images)
You order Lambrusco outside of a pizza restaurant.(04 of11)
Open Image ModalThere's a time and place for everything. Lambrusco -- a lightly sparkling red wine that is served slightly chilled -- is best with Italian food, specifically pizza. If you order it when you're eating a burger, you may be judged for being a little bizarre, or just confused about what Lambrusco is. (credit:Landahlauts/Flickr)
You order Champagne... even when you're not celebrating anything.(05 of11)
Open Image ModalUnless you're toasting a special occasion, ordering Champagne will unquestionably get you some looks. We love Champagne as much as the next guy, we really do. But it's special, and not for everyday consumption. Order Champagne out to dinner on a Tuesday and people will think you're a snob. You're asking for it, so just deal with it.

You order the second most expensive bottle on the menu. (07 of11)
Open Image ModalSome people will think you're being savvy, but others will think you're a sucker, because that bottle is a trap. Restaurants know you don't want to order the cheapest bottle; they know you'll go for that second cheapest option. Who knows what they could be trying to pawn off on you.

You go to great pains to order orange wine.(08 of11)
Open Image ModalOrange wines are trendy, but they're not mainstream, so you really have to care enough to seek them out. Of course, they're only trendy to the people who pay attention to and believe in wine trends, so you'll either impress or confuse other people when you order them.

You order a bottle without asking anyone else what they want.(09 of11)
Open Image ModalEveryone's been out to dinner where someone orders a bottle of wine -- or a few -- without consulting the rest of the table and expects everyone to pitch in. Do this and people will think you're a jerk. Plain and simple. (credit:Johner via Getty Images)
You order knowledgeably. (10 of11)
Open Image ModalYou will incite fear and respect in your dinner mates. If you're not actually knowledgable about wine and only pretending, more power to you. No one else you're with knows any better, so good job. (credit:Image Source via Getty Images)
You ask for ice with your red wine.(11 of11)
Open Image ModalAsking for ice with your white wine may not get you looks, but ice for red wine? The only time ice belongs in red wine is if you're drinking sangria. Period. (credit:Foodcollection via Getty Images)
