I have found this information very interesting I want to share with you. Do you want to know how to understand the wine list when going to a restaurant, what kind of wines to choose depending on the dish that we ask for?… Mariano Rodriguez, the famous Basque restaurant and sommelier Arzak (awarded three Michelin stars), offers some clues to answer these and other questions.

It`s important to read the wine list as well as the labels: name of source or origin, vintage, grape types, age (aging, youth, reserve, etc.).. The letters should express some of these characteristics in order to match with the choice to eat.

The white grape that produces white wines suits with all kinds of fish or shellfish . Reds with meat, and pink, though. But in the modern kitchen, with so many contrasts and nuances, bitter, sour and sweet – these traditional norms are relative. You choose!
About the colour in the glass: A rust color in red is equivalent to maturity , a young red will have shades of violet and white display with a nice breeding golden color.

It is not just about the price!. There are high-priced wines that correspond with jewels. But that does not mean you have to choose just thm to enjoy an expensive stock. Each day, there are wines whose price / quality ratio (always first quality) is interesting and modern taste. Wines with personality, which is important.
According to the expert he does not think there is  feminine and masculine in wines. The thing is any great wine is good if there is passion, love and affinity while drinking.
About the ideal temperature: Yet it is true that excessively cold temperatures, which often occur in white and sparkling, prevent or limit the discovery of their aromas.

And, The previous tasting is not just a ritual, is an act of professionalism and it is good that you loose the fear to speak , to say what you believe. If not, you risk damaging a meal for not chosing the right wine. (Hola photo)
And remmenber, any wine , the higher quality, better- is a reason for celebration.
And you, do you normally choose wine at the restaurant?. Choose the right one and Enjoy!
