Pairing food and Chablis

Pairing food and Chablis

Posted on August 7 2018 at 07:39

Despite the emphasis that winemakers place on the different crus or terroirs of Chablis three factors seem to me to influence a food match more than any other for most of the Chablis you’ll taste - the age of the wine, the vintage and the degree of oak influence, if any.

For the next 10 days I’m going to be visiting the vineyards of Oregon and Washington State so the site will turn into more of a blog. Our first day yesterday included lunch at Chateau Ste Michelle, by far Washington’s largest wine producer.

Few people now throw up their hands in horror at the idea of matching red wine with fish. But how many realise just how often you can pair the two?

Long overdue return visit to @theethicurean and this much loved view. The menu has changed with a focus on small plates but still based on the fantastic produce from the Barley Wood walled garden. (Swipe to see the some of the gorgeous dishes we ate.) Can’t think of a more perfect place to spend a summer Sunday. #guest. . . . #ethicurean #wrington #somerset #countryside #view #garden #vegetables #instafood #foodstagramBest road sign ever via @mareliroux #regramWorking my way steadily through the @littlefrench_bristol menu - tonight taking in the champagne risotto and steak tartare. Just the nicest place @freddybirdfood . . . #risotto #rice #mushrooms #fridaynight #bristolAlways jump at the chance of going round cheese maturing rooms (especially when the cheeses are infused with truffles) This one was on my recent Spanish trip - Queseria Campoveja in Serrada. Oh and they were sheep cheeses in case you’re wondering!. #presstrip. . . . #cheese #queso #sheepcheese #cheesemaker #campoveja #nofilter Follow on Instagram
