Wine/Food Matching Parties


Want to have a great get-together where you can eat, drink and actually learn something about the marriage of wine and food? This is something I suggest to my wine students at the college all the time. Invite numerous like-minded people (not party animals) over and ask each to bring a food dish and a bottle of wine they think matches it. Start off by tasting all the wine and food matches, even mixing and matching wine and food for more results. Then discuss why the matches work or don’t. You’ll learn a lot about wine/food affinity and have a great time doing it. After this educational portion of the evening is complete, then you and the group can switch into party mode and indulge. Lots of fun!
