WHICH WINE TO CHOOSE ACCORDING TO THE TYPE OF FOOD

The time comes to prepare a meal or surprise your guests and we always have the same doubt when it comes to choosing the wine that goes best with the menu we plan to prepare. We know from experience that there are many wines on the market, all of them are perfect to accompany a particular type of food and pair a gastronomic experience in a unique way.

But, many times, finding the right wine, serving it in the right way and accompanying it with the ideal snack can be a very complicated task. You don’t have to be overwhelmed, there are some techniques or basic knowledge that can help you to get it right without being an enology professional.

At AGUILAR WINERY we are experts in wines and distillates. We count on the support of our Sommelier and his monthly recommendations are highly anticipated. This time we have asked him for advice on how to choose the perfect wine according to the type of food we are going to serve at our event.

TIPS FOR THE PERFECT PAIRING

  • Start the aperitif with harmony. The aperitif generally harmonizes with dry white wines, fortified wines, sparkling wines or young red wine.
  • If your choice is seafood, try iodized flavors. Fine wines, manzanillas or fresh young white wines are the ideal choice to combine with seafood, a good albariño never fails in these cases.
  • If you plan to cook fish do not hesitate to opt for a white wine, this choice does not fail, although not generally all types of fish require a white wine. If you want to get it 100% right, consult the perfect wine according to the fish you are going to cook.
  • The cured meats have their favorite and that is a good crianza red wine, a Rioja would be a great choice.
  • For meats, we find ourselves in the same situation as fish. A meat always goes well with a red wine, but depending on the meat on the menu, we recommend you to consult the wine that goes best with your choice.
