Food & Wine Pairing Recipes

  • Astringent or bitter foods go well with full-flavoured wines, such as Cabernet Sauvignon
  • Crisp wines, such as Pinot Grigio, go well with salty foods
  • Fatty cuts of meat work well with bitter wines, as they will tone down the bitterness
  • Highly acidic foods pair well with acidic wines
  • Serve light-bodied wines with light food and full-bodied wines with heavier foods
  • Spicy foods pair well with sweeter wines
  • Sweet foods need a dry wine to offset the sweetness
