Thrillist.com Wine and Food Pairing

Drinking A Mean Game When Serving Game (Wine Food Pairing Up-leveling For Thrillist.com)

Posted on April 19, 2016April 12, 2016 by 1WineDude

My latest for Thrillist.com is now available, titled How to Level Up Food and Wine Pairings. Is there anything new regarding food and wine matching offered in this piece? Probably not; just about everything that need be said about pairing up food and wine has pretty much been said. Having said that, the article is…

Putting More Than A Cork In It (Talking Alternative Wine Closures For Fix.com)

Posted on February 23, 2016February 18, 2016 by 1WineDude
