I have used this glass in this Video: RIEDEL Veritas Champagne
Food and wine matching is usually associated with fancy Michelin-star restaurants and snooty Sommeliers, but many of the best wine matches developed as accidents.
Somebody hundreds of years ago had foie gras for dinner and decided to open that bottle of Sauternes made by the neighbor because he had nothing else to drink.
I don’t think that person ran the numbers and calculated that this combo works. He might not even have thought that it could work … but the thing that happened on his palate blew his socks off. So let’s see whether I can find the perfect match and in the process teach you how I match food and wine.

I've personally never seen anyone ever suggesting a pairing of fruits and wine. I LOVE IT. Talking about high tannins, high alcohol reds but I just wouldn't mind it and will certainly enjoy it with just any red. HAVE YOU? Well do yourself/selves a favour and try it.
that reaction to the M&M cookies 🤣🤣🤣
Konstantin, i hope all is well with you. I just watched your snack food and wine pairing videos, interesting. I do have a challenge for you: would you be willing to build a dinner menu for me and in which order, based on the following wines: Yquem 1967 – Haut Brion 1989 – Cheval Blanc 1998 – Latour 2010 – Louis Roederer Cristal 2008. I do love your videos, you are a great ambassador of wine for all . Thank you Konstantin
"Hello Fresh…Call me". Good thinking, Baum. And my favorite snack with a bottle of wine is another bottle of wine.
I think Pinot Noir and the sausages was my best combination.
Living next to the Rocky Mountains, seeing them used to brand marshmallows overseas is a little wild
Some of your pairings were a little odd in my mind (the M&M cookie, the canned fish, and the peanuts [particularly with the Kabinett riesling]) but overall I enjoyed this. Since I live in America, we are known for pizza (both homemade and fast-food). In the case of the latter, I enjoy Papa John's pizza (fast food akin to Domino's) and a higher-end Bordeaux or extracted California (Napa) Cab or blend. It's a guilty pleasure I don't enjoy often but is one of my favourites.
I would love to see some Argentinian wines, specially some Torrontés! did you try it before? its super aromatic, Jasmine flowers everywhere.
My favorite snack pairing would have to be hot cheetos and vouvray.
The egg and wine diet sounds crazy… Four eggs and a 13% abv bottle of wine adds up to less than 1000 calories per day, so you'd be starving yourself 😂
It's a great video demystifying the whole big discussion about food and wine pairings. Sometimes, if I have a good to great wine, I enjoy it it with mixed nuts and cheese.
Great video as always!
What about doing a video or series of videos where you suggest the pairings for the most common dishes (salami and cheese platters, pasta with ragù, pasta with fish sauce, soups, grilled meat and fish, desserts…)?
Think my favourite combination are some kind of paprika crisps with off-dry riesling. Apart from that I usually do not combine snacks with wine because I often did not have a clou what to combine. This might change now after this video which I think was one of your most interesting ones just because it is usually easy to find out what wine to combine with lets say lobster but if you try to ask google for more everyday combinations like you did here you will not find anything most of the time. So: MANY THANKS!!!
Could we see a cellar tour in the future?
This is s very handy video to keep on hand. We often have friends over and they bring a variety of snacks – mostly homemade – having a decent pairing available is key. Now, I just need to bump up my cellar stock with some bottles that I am missing! A favorite pairing for us is to match a zinfandel (often Ridge) with dates and raw walnuts. That combination is a great way to both start or finish a meal. Since I am not one that likes over sweet desserts – this checks the box.
Ich kann definitiv bestätigen, dass Cup Noodles mit billigem Sauvignon Blanc sehr gut ist 🤝
Spanish jabugo ham with any decent brut nature cava is one of my favorite matches
Hahahah. Great video! I missed a pairing with the infamous gummy bears, maybe a Beaujolais Nouveau?
Hello! I’m curious – you don’t like any Zinfandels ? How come? 🤔 maybe I’m low brow 😅
Love this!! Cheese Supreme Doritos and a warm climate Syrah 👌
I drink whatever wine i want to red or white wine any kind of food. I don't care if it pairs well. Or what rich wine snobby people say is appropriate for wine pairing I like what I like. And that is all that matters to me. Drink what you like not what rich snobby people people tell you what to eat with your wine
Nice episode! I really enjoyed it! A colab with a chef would be cool too!
18:36 Lett mie noh Daun biloh! Trollinger accent at its best.
It would be nice a video where you show and explain your wine collection !
Thank you Konstantin for all the amazing videos !
Thank you Konstantin, really enjoyed this video for the fun and informative content. I mean who doesn’t enjoy a quick snack, and now we can pair them with delicious wines. Cheers!!
