Pairing Wine with Food Class #6
On a bright Saturday afternoon, we gathered for an afternoon of culinary exploration as we savored four thoughtfully curated tapas, each paired with two distinct wine selections. This tasting highlighted how a white and a red wine can elevate the same dish in surprisingly different ways. John McCarthy, North Florida Fine Wine Advisor at Terroir Selections guided us through the informative class.
