Food and Wine Workshop £35
Food & Wine Workshops are held at The Holiday Inn Preston and cover the principles of matching foods and wines. They include practical demonstrations of how different food elements combine with differing styles of wine. A selection of 6-7 delicious wines are tasted with different types of food.
The Food & Wine Workshop also makes a great Xmas Gift or for any occasion!
Some Key Principles of Food & Wine Matching :
Contrast
- salty food with sweet wine (eg Rocquefort with Muscat)
- rich/oily food with sweet wine (eg foie gras with Sauternes)
- salty food with sharp wine (eg ham, oysters, olives with Fino Sherry, Loire Sauvignon, dry Riesling, Chablis etc)
- rich/oily food with sharp wine (eg Chinese with Loire Sauvignon, Confit de Canard with Loire reds)
Match
- sweet food with sweet wine (eg Tarte Tatin with Riesling Spatlese or Vouvray Moelleux - wine should be sweeter than food)
- foods with acidity with sharp wine (eg tomato-dishes with Barbera wines, vinaigrettes with Loire sauvignon etc)
- cool climate = high acidity
