How to Pair Wine
There is a lot of pretension around wine. When entering a memorable dining experience you should be able to choose what you want without dealing with the condescending waiter or sommelier. That’s where the suggested pairings come into play. Wine is meant to compliment food. That being said, it is best to think of the food that you’re having/ordering and choose your wine selection accordingly.
Common food combinations:
Oysters, caviar: Champange or Sparkling Wine
Goat Cheese: Sauvignon Blanc
Pork and duck: Pinot Noir (It pairs so well there’s even a Pigs & Pinot Event)
New York Steak: Cabernet Sauvignon
Spicy Thai Curry: Riesling
