Help This Dumb Beginner

[scottafa1]

I need help. I am just now getting into the wines and don't even know "A" of my ABC's. What is tthe differnce between a Brunello and a Caberneta? What is the differnece between a bordeaux and a burgandy? I currently have two bottles of a brunello (Banfi) that I am told are good wines but were a little pricey ($60 each). Can someone out there give me a few basic pointers to get me started?
