Food and wine are great together when done well. To ensure you do not get an unsatisfying combination here is a list of possible food and wine that should be paired together during the two main seasons, wintertime and summertime.
The various food and wine pairings are as follows:
Summertime: We need something lighter and more refreshing.
- Lighter wines such as a sparkling Aligote would pair well with picnic lunch of fresh bread, cold meats and pate.
- Richer wines such as Beaujolais Crus (Gamay) would pair well with sausages or burgers on the barbeque.
Wintertime: We need something that is more comforting.
- Lighter wines would pair well with Oysters
- Richer wines such as Chablis (Chardonnay) or Cote de Nuits (Pinot Noir) would pair well with Burgundy’s famous Epoisses cheese or roasted lamb.
