Wine and food pairing 101
Rule #1 - There are no rules…
You all have heard the standard answer from people that really have no answers. White wine goes with chicken and fish, and red wine goes with red meat…
Although this principal is somewhat true I like to pair my wines with sometimes off the wall foods. I may drink a chard with cheddar cheese or pizza. I may have a really expensive and rare Bordeaux with Krystals (as we did recently at a friend's house). It all depends on my mood at the time.
The moral to this story is, drink what you like with what you like to eat, there are no truly correct answers. Every palate is different and new experiences can lead to some of the greatest and most memorable moments in our lives. If you would like to properly pair your taste to a wine style, don't hesitate to ask a wine professional for suggestions. That's what we do.
Until next time. Drink more wine.
