Wine and food pairing
Hi all,
Trust you are doing well. We have wine threat and what for dinner thread. Let's start wine and food pairing thread, shall we? Let me start with beef rib and Spanish red blend: Cab and Tempranillo. Thanks in advance. |

In for the upcoming posts, but for me…heavy foods get red wine. The chewiest Cabernet I can find and anything light or earlier in the day gets a chardonnay

Whatever wine you like with whatever food you want.
There are advantages to a tannic red with red meat but honestly do what works for you. |

The second time? Mario Andretti, but his was more like "Drinking shouldn't be harder than driving." Funny little guy. |

Mario is a legend - I have his signature inside the glovebox of my 79 Lotus Esprit "JPS" edition - he signed it for the previous owner. Would love to meet the guy. |

He spends most of his time in PA but you can sometimes catch him at the winery, especially if an industry marketing event is going on. He used to keep a countach at a shop there for tooling around in.

And then he went further to talk about the tannic interactions with red meat. The tannins break apart a specific protein to make these long chains of proteins that make the wine feel/taste more thick/bolder due to it. We were doing a dinner event and he even had us take a bite of steak and drink some red and look at the glass and if you looked closely you could see these little protein strings. It was gross but interesting. |

I live in TN. You all are too fancy for my taste. I'm a moonshine and beef jerky kinda guy.
I kid, I kid. Used to drink quite a bit of wine. Not a fan of reds. Dig a good riesling, pinot grigio and moscato. As far as pairings go, I don't give a shit. I drink for the buzz, not to feel fancy. |

I don't like liver, so I take Lady Jane's suggestion instead: Pizza and Chianti.
Next time, I will try deep dish pizza and chianti classico. |
