One wine that pairs with almost anything 🥂

Sparkling.

🫧 Bubbles cleanse the palate
🧊 Cold temperature refreshes
⚡ Acidity cuts through fat
🍷 Low alcohol doesn't overwhelm

Fried food, spicy food, cheese, salty snacks, brunch — it works.

Not sure what to pour? Pour sparkling.

#WineWednesday: Wine and Mexican food 🍷🌮

The rule: match the sauce, not the protein.

Verde sauces → Sauvignon Blanc
Mole → Zinfandel or Champagne
Ceviche → Albariño
Carnitas → Pinot Noir
Tacos al pastor → Dry rosé

Secret weapon: sparkling wine. Bubbles cleanse, cold soothes.

Mexico makes wine too — Valle de Guadalupe, 150+ wineries.

#WineWednesday: Yes, India makes wine 🍷🇮🇳

Nashik - Sula Vineyards. Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc. Crisp acidity, great with spicy food.

Bangalore - Grover Vineyards. Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir. Full-bodied reds.

Only 10% of India's grapes become wine. A frontier worth watching.

Is there anything better than a glass of wine, a book, and a toasty little cat on your lap? I think not.

Drinking: Susana Balbo Cabernet Sauvignon 2024
A very nice, velvety wine with lots of fresh black cherry and blackberry on the nose. Full-ish body, medium+ alcohol, and a fresh herbal lift. Still young and fresh, but tannins aren't overwhelming thanks to a lovely bit of French Oak, I assume.

Reading: Play Thing by Bea Setton
Fairly lurid prose and an interesting protagonist, I've found this one an enjoyable read so far. At around 40% in, there's still a lingering unease though at times the foreshadowing can be a bit on-the-nose.

International Waffle Day + #WineWednesday 🧇🍷

Brussels waffles — light, crisp-edged, yeast-risen.

The secret: sparkling water. A full liter in the batter creates lift — airy pockets, tender interior.

Let the yeast batter rise until doubled. Cook until golden. Top with chocolate, berries, or powdered sugar.

The pairing: Moscato d'Asti. Gentle fizz, stone fruit notes, low alcohol.

But wine works beautifully with Asian food, if you know the rules.

The key: the sauce dictates the pairing, not the protein.

🌶️ Spicy dishes → off-dry Riesling or Gewürztraminer (sugar tames heat)
🍣 Sushi → Champagne, dry Riesling, Albariño
🍜 Umami-heavy → earthy Pinot Noir or Gamay
🍖 Sweet glazes → fruit-forward Merlot, Zinfandel

Avoid high tannins and high alcohol with spicy food — they amplify the burn.

🦪🍷 #WineWednesday: Muscadet + Oysters

"What grows together, goes together."

Muscadet comes from where the Loire meets the Atlantic – same waters nurturing the oyster beds.

Bone-dry, briny, mineral wine. Salty, delicate oysters. Perfect harmony.

Skip the lemon – the wine does the job.

Good #WineWednesday Evening. Ossium served up Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon Big Red Monster. Cheers 🍷🍷

#today is #WineWednesday at Dave's.

While I drink rosé wine throughout the year, it is definitely a wine I drink more of during the hot summer months. So this week, I opened up the Quivira Rosé 2022, Wine Creek Ranch, Dry Creek Valley. Light pink in color, textured and fresh, the Quivira Rosé 2022, Wine Creek Ranch, Dry Creek Valley is the Please The Palate wine of the week. Happy #winewednesday

The word ‘ravie’ translates to the feminine version of ‘delighted’ in French and when I drank this wine, I was delighted. I was delighted because it was fresh and fun but also had complexity and structure. One sip made me want another and another and that is why the âmevive wine 2021 Ravie, Santa Barbara County is the Please The Palate wine of the week. Happy #winewednesday!

There are many common wine blends. For example, Grenache is often blended with Syrah and Mourvèdre, and Cabernet Franc is often blended with Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Malbec. But sometimes you come across a wine blend that catches your eye because you have never seen these grapes together. And that is exactly what happened this week as I sipped on the Deux Punx 2021 De La Soif Orange Blend from Tehama County, the Please The Palate wine of the week. Happy #winewednesday

Is it a rosé wine? An orange wine? Nope, it is actually a light red wine. It is the Two Shepherds 2021 Grenache Gris/Grenache Noir Co-Ferment from the Daenen Block on the Two Shepherds Estate Vineyard in the Russian River Valley in Sonoma and the Please The Palate wine of the week.
