Quick Pairing Tips
Match Weight
Pair light wines with light dishes and bold wines with rich, hearty foods. The wine and food should complement, not overpower each other.
Consider Acidity
High-acid wines cut through fatty foods and refresh the palate. Think Champagne with fried chicken or Sauvignon Blanc with goat cheese.
Regional Pairings
Foods and wines from the same region often pair beautifully together. Italian wines with Italian food, French wines with French cuisine.
Sweet & Savory
Sweet wines can balance spicy or salty foods. A slightly sweet Riesling pairs wonderfully with spicy Asian cuisine.
