A basic rule says "White with
Light and Red with Rich".
Except with game, how you cook is more important in choosing wine
than what you cook. Acidic wines go well with oily food (oil and
vinegar principle). However, try pairing similar flavours - acidic
wines with acidic foods. Speaking generally, the list is: white
meat, cooked fish - white wines shells, crabs - neutral white wines
dark meat, game fish, grilled fish - red wines sweets - dessert
wines or champagnes Furthermore, we have divided dishes into four
principal groups, with each of them having a separate page,
where you will learn which of our wines make a perfect match with
specific dishes. |
