February is the Month for Pairings

Once in a while, moons align, and the right wine matches with great food.

I hope you enjoy some of my favorites for food and wine pairings.

Côtes du Rhône and the grill: Consider any food with a char or sear marks—grilled veggies to a big steak. The deep fruit of a Château d’Aigueville Côtes du Rhône (around $14) with beef and veggies off the grill is—awesome.

Chocolate and red wine: Is there anything better? I did a tasting and accidently came across this combo—Vina Robles cabernet (around $20) and sea salt chocolate caramels—decadent, and sometimes you deserve this.
