Wine and food pairing

A quick rule is the following

  1. Red wines pair best with bold flavored meats (e.g. red meat).
  2. White wines pair best with light-intensity meats (e.g. fish or chicken or seafood )
  3. Rose is ideal with aperitif or light snacks
  4. Champagne is for celebrations

Below are some wines that can be paired with some excellent foot

  • Chardonnay with chicken, scallops, lobster, and brie.
  • Sauvignon Blanc with shrimp, acidic pork, oysters, and whitefish.
  • Pinot Noir with salmon, fatty fish, and duck.
  • Zinfandel or red/white Burgundy with turkey, pheasant, and quail.
  • Red Bordeaux with lamb.
  • Beaujolais with traditional pork.
  • Cabernet Sauvignon with beef, venison, and grilled meat.
  • Burgundy with braised meat and game.
  • White wine served with seafood
