The best pairings with red burgundy

Posted on January 12 2022 at 06:03

As with white burgundy there’s a world of difference between a simple village burgundy and an elegant premier or grand cru - most of which need 5 years at the very least to show at their best but the dividing line when it comes to pairing wine with red burgundy is age.

It might strike you as ironic that as the @thepilgrm’s wine writer in residence I should be talking about not drinking rather than drinking but even if you’re in the booze business - ESPECIALLY if you’re in the booze business - you need to learn how to moderate. If you’d like to take on board those life lessons and/or find out how to transition from dry January join me next Thursday evening (23rd) when I’ll be in conversation with Laura Willoughby of @joinclubsoda. We’ll be tasting a range of the best alcohol-free drinks out there including @saichodrinks @sipsmith’s Freeglider, @botivodrinks and @bristolbeerfactory’s Clear Head Tickets are available from the events section of the Pilgrm website https://thepilgrm.com/article/how-to-drink-without-drinking-with-fiona-beckett and profits from the event will go to the mental health charity @talkclubcharity. Good subject, good cause. Do join us! . . . #moderatedrinking #sober #soberlife #alcoholfreelife #clubsoda #londonevents #londonpaddingtonAs I was felled by a nasty bug on my return from Italy I had to cancel my plans to go up to London so spent the money I’d have spent on my train ticket on a cheering bunch of flowers from @arena_flowers instead. Most of them are in a big vase in the hall but I’ve got the hyacinths in a smaller vase next to where I’m working where they’r wafting their scent through the kitchen. Why don’t we buy ourselves flowers more often? They don’t have to be expensive - just a bunch of daffs will do it. Or maybe you do? . . . #flowers #springflowers #treatyourself #selfcareBristol looking rather beautiful this afternoon in the winter sunshine. . . . #bristol #suspensionbridge #clifton #lateafternoonsun #sundayafternoonReally hard to capture just how stunningly beautiful this is. #upthemountain #mountain #dolomites #pradalago #madonnadicampiglio #wintersnow Follow on Instagram
