(YahooStyle) - If you walk into a pub or restaurant that looks a little above your means, if in doubt order the house wine, right?

Because it’s a cheapest by definition, right?

Wrong – apparently, it has little to do with price, and is simply what the establishment recommends.

So, while it often is the cheapest wine, this isn’t necessarily the case. Ouch.

Ashley Ragovin, founder of Pour This, told Bon Appetit that the option isn’t always cheapest on the menu – though it is likely to be good value for money.
