The Art of Smart Pairing
The history of food pairing
The art of winemaking goes back thousands of years, while the exact origin of pairing wine with food is unknown it can be assumed that local wines were paired with local cuisine, the natural pairing, perfected in royal courts over time, evolved throughout the history.
British winemakers used the phrase “Buy on an apple and sell on cheese" probably meaning a wine tasting good with raw sweet apple goes well with cheese, a desirable attribute for wine.
Re-imagining the digital culinary experience
Fast forward to modern time, the art of pairing wine and food has become an important aspect of culinary experience, influencing choice of ingredients to complement or contrast the wine to enrich the palate and create an enjoyable experience as master sommelier Evan Goldstein said "One must listen while the other speaks or the result is a muddle".
We have taken that advice to heart, our AI sommelier “Arthur” analyzes food properties to suggest specific wines that pair well with your food in real-time. This can help you to better understand which wines complement your meal and enhance your dining experience. Wine pairing is a delicate process of combining food dishes with the perfect wine to help elevate the dining experience. Food and wine pairing has been a technique of matching complementary flavors with the goal of heightening enjoyment of each component. The concept can be applied when matching wines with various dishes. Wine pairing is not only about matching food and wine solely for their excellence, but also to maximize the value that each component brings to the whole experience.
