Nowadays, we all know more or less what this means and, in general, we all love the delightful union between wine and a menu or a favourite dish. Wine plays a major role in the menu and completes the dining experience and, for this reason, more and more people are interested in this trend.<\/p>\n<p>Here we offer some recommendations for <strong>food-lovers<\/strong> as well as for those who wish to immerse themselves in this world of wine and gastronomy in order to better appreciate fine cuisine.When choosing a wine for our meal, we often select one that we like, and do not think about a wine that will enhance or complement the taste of our menu.<\/p>\n<h4>Although there are no strict rules for Wine Pairing, here we offer some suggestions.<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Respect the order of service, start with the lightest, followed by those with more body; the same as with menus which are arranged according to the intensity of the dishes.<\/li>\n<li>Seek a balance between the flavours of the dish and the wine; they should enhance each other and neither should dominate. What we do not want, in the end, is to be unable to appreciate the full mix of flavours.<\/li>\n<li>You can choose to pair by <strong>association or by contrast<\/strong>. When you choose by association, you wish to find aromas and tastes that complement the dish, such as a dry white with seafood. When you choose a contrast, you are looking for a new taste experience, for example, to serve a chocolate dessert with a full-bodied red wine.<\/li>\n<li>Finally, the simplest recommendation: pair your meal or menu with a wine you would drink on it&#8217;s own.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2109\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2109\" style=\"width: 1014px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/gfhoteles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Screen-Shot-2014-10-29-at-12.47.42-PM11.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2109 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/gfhoteles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Screen-Shot-2014-10-29-at-12.47.42-PM11-1024x683-1.png\" alt=\"Chocolate y vinos con cuerpo\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" title=\"\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2109\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dark Chocolate and Red Wine an exciting pairing<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In this case, it is easy to buy the wine of your choice at your usual supermarket or speciality shop because there is time and a wide selection to choose from.
