Wine
Wine is a magical alcoholic beverage made from fermented grapes to help medical providers cope.
Uses
Wine is made to consumed in order to make problems go away. In a 2015 landmark study, red wine "in moderation is good for you, while in excess is absolutely freaking amazing."[1] White wine has not been specifically studied. However, the results of this study were extrapolated to include white wines. Though wine is almost always made for consumption, there is the case of one hospital in Mill Valley, California where wine is used as a skin prep before surgery.[2]
Pairing Wine with Food
Sure, you can do this, but it's way more fun to pair wine with patients. See next section.

Pairing Wine with Notes
It is generally best to pair white wines with milder forms of notes such as co-signatures and brief op notes. For longer and bolder notes like progress notes or discharge summaries, we recommend red wines like a nice Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon, or Barolo.
