Food and Wine, the rules have changes!
26 Feb 2012 2 Comments
The bears are “old school” but still funny.
There aren’t many rules with food and wine pairing but here are some guide lines.
Light wine with light food.
Full wine with heavy foods.
Wine with acidity and /or tannins with fatty foods
No tannins with “hot/spicy” foods
When in doubt, go ethnic. IE: Italian wine with Italian food.
It’s really not that hard to pair. When you are successful you graduate from eating to dining!!!

From the Ribera del Duero comes this lush, dark, dark purple wine. I love just looking at it in my glass! Intense blackberry, raspberry and anise. Wonderful floral notes with softer tannins than one would expect from Spain. A hint of spice and cocoa too. It is powerful but elegant.
For around $25 this is a beauty!!!
