You need not limit youself to reds, but the choice is yours. I will not recommend any particular brand but my favorite reds include Cabernets, Sirah, Pinot, and Malbec.
I'm on the West coast so a Mid-west time of 7PM is a bit early. To avoid confusion let's use East Coast time and let participants adjust schedules as necessary. e.g. a 9PM east coast time would be 6PM for me and that would be just dandy.
