Definition: Wine-themed menu

The pleasure of the wine lover lies in composing a meal around one or more wines. All the more so if it is a prestigious wine from a great vintage, he will do everything possible to ensure that this bottle is prominently displayed. Simple, high-quality dishes, based on the principle of contrast, are often a better choice than elaborate cuisine. In detail, the pairing depends on the colour and strength of the wine being served. There are many specific books on the subject of food and wine pairings. There are two possible scenarios: the hostess composes a menu and the wine lover chooses the wines he considers most suitable from his cellar. Conversely, among wine lovers, it is very interesting to select a few fine bottles to pair with dishes based on these wines.
