Wondering What Wine To Drink Tonight

Nat_2Wondering what wine to have with tonight's dinner? Or maybe you would like to  choose dinner based on that wine you have been yearning to try.

Try out Natalie Maclean's interactive food and wine matching tool. You can search by food or by wine. It is fun and easy to use.  Wine and Food Matcher

"The old rules about white wine with white meat and red wine with red meat just don't give enough guidance anymore," says MacLean, author of the bestseller Red, White and Drunk All Over: A Wine-Soaked Journey from Grape to Glass. "With modern fusion cuisine and wines from new regions around the world, the choices-and confusion-are great." Says Maclean

I really like her top 10 fun food and wine matches:

1.  Popcorn with Chilean ChardonnayNatalie_maclean300x200_4
2.  Nachos with California Zinfandel
3.  Potato chips with French Champagne
4.  Pizza with Italian Chianti
5.  Fish and chips with German Riesling
6.  Hamburgers with Australian Shiraz
7.  Smoked salmon with Canadian or Oregon Pinot Noir
8.  Quiche with New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc
9.  Canned brown beans with tawny Port
10. TV dinner steak with French or Washington Cabernet Sauvignon

I can go as far as the canned baked beans, but I think I will have to draw the line on the TV dinner steak, I'll take a nice well marinated skirt steak instead.

Sound like fun? Check out here Web Site here: http://www.nataliemaclean.com
