Weekend wine

Easily 2020 bottles and top rated reds!!!

And both Syrah grapes - the first bottle said it ahead of the second bottle being popped!

I love Shiraz - yup!!!

And especially an Australian and a South African.

Two of my favourite wine producing countries and honestly locations where I’ve never had bad bottles - at any price.

I have paired some with the wrong foods and makes the wine taste - wrong!!!

Wo thinking about the right pairing makes so much difference!

Ive posted the link to the site that makes life easy for you!

Having a go to place to make sure you pick the right bottle for the right - sauce!!!

Whats the over powering aspect of your food? The sauce - right??? yes right - the question was rhetorical!

So time to plan your food - yes ask for the food menu first before you choose the wine!

Said this before - restaurants do this arse backward!

Food first then pair - ask foe a recommendation from the waiter!

Or if You’re at home - use this link!

Top tips -

The wine should be more acidic than the food.
The wine should be sweeter than the food.
The wine should have the same flavor intensity as the food.
Red wines pair best with bold flavored meats (e.g. red meat).
White wines pair best with light-intensity meats (e.g. fish or chicken).
Bitter wines (e.g. red wines) are best balanced with fat.
It is better to match the wine with the sauce than with the meat.
More often than not, White, Sparkling and Rosé wines create contrasting pairings.
More often than not, Red wines will create congruent pairings.
