Wine Accompanying a Meal

When choosing a wine to accompany a meal, the general idea is to choose white wine for a light meal and red for a heavier meal.

This being that a light meal such grilled chicken or fish would suit being accompanied by a white wine or maybe even a good rose wine, as the flavour of the meal wouldn’t overpower the wine and vice versa.

Red wine has a stronger flavour and is more suited to heartier meals such as red meats with rich sauces.

These general rules are only a guideline and it can be good to experiment. Trust your own palate as no one can tell you what you like or dislike. The most important thing is that you enjoy the wine and the food.
