Pairing Wine with Food – or is it “Food with Wine”?
Many of you know the concepts of pairing wines with food. But if you’re anything like me, I’m more like – “I want to drink this wine tonight, what should I make to pair with it” than the other way around. Do you know how the food pairings affect your perception of the wines? Increasing and decreasing certain components in food can enhance or elevate your wine experience. Jeanne Fradella will take us through the principles of pairing food with wines – a fun take on the traditional pairing concepts!
