  1. We each bring our own unique sensory apparatus to the process of tasting. If everyone in the world could possibly take a bite of one big apple, each of us quite literally tastes something different. What we "taste," — that is, the story we tell ourselves as our individual, complex, and completely unique brains interpret the signals that they are getting from each of our individual, complex and unique sensory nervous systems — is ours and ours alone. The biochemical and bioelectrical processes that combine to create the thought, "Hey, this wine goes great with pepperoni pizza" are so staggeringly complex, not to mention situational, that the idea that someone can actually know what they are doing when they prescribe a specific wine with a specific dish is laughable.

  2. This is one of the smarter no nonsense to the point! segments no ridiculous music and No
    Blah!! Blah!! Blah!! I have been in the Wine Business for 16 years on multiple levels of the industry. This one I like! Pleasant and Smart. Thank You!

  3. I just put together a first draft of a wine and food pairing menu. It was really challenging because I wanted to serve fish as main course. This is definitely worth learning more about.

  4. This is best way to explain the wine and food pairing in the most simplest way that even a fresher will get a good idea.

  5. If you haven’t watched this yet, take advice – don’t! It must be the worst informed, completely BAD advice on wine pairing ever! The advice given is absolute drivel. Go watch something serious instead.

  6. TLDR
    1. Hot d’ouerves need a dry rosé
    2. Acid needs acid
    – light, citrusy, white wine such as Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon blanc
    3. Tannins need fat
    – bold red wine such as Syrah or Cabernet
    4. Heat needs sweet
    – lighter sweet wine such as a Riesling or white Zinfandel
    5. Salty needs bubbles such as a sparkling wine
    6. Earthy needs earthy
    A Syrah or a Pinot noir

  7. Acid needs acid? Totally wrong. Acid needs a smooth wine. For example pasta with tomato sauce needs a half body smooth wine, not a young wine with high acidity. It's the opposite if you want to reach a real pairing.

  8. Great stuff, I am sure all what we need to know about wines is what are the elements and for food what are the flavour components of food. Very brief and to the point. Thank you

  9. I wish she had of gone through the different types of wine first. Other than that i liked the presentation. It’s really about your own taste buds and what you like. Usually tho, it’s white meat white wine, red meat red wine 👌🏽

  10. Whats funny?? If clientele asks fer sweet?? It a fruity wine the guys wife is asking for, most likely 99% of time. Unless its just desert, than you can grab a port, sherry, moscato etc. One thing as a server is understanding this concept. Allot of people really have no idea wtf they are asking for really. Like the Carbonara debates with all the know it alls. Thats cucina povera, midnight pasta, cheap eats, supposed to be. I'd rather make it my way at home how I want!!
