Know what to pour in five seconds. No jargon, no snobbery, and nothing over €15 white or €25 red.
Built for the host, the BBQ regular, the curious beginner. Not for sommeliers.
Grapes decoded in plain words, a plate-by-plate lookup table, serving temperatures, and the myths worth dropping. Keep it on your phone for the next shop.
One question to ask before any meal. That is most of pairing, sorted.
Ten grapes in plain language, each with a price band you will actually find.
Find the food, grab the bottle. Pizza, BBQ, fish, cheese, spice, dessert.
The three bottles to always have in, plus how cold each one should be.
The thinking that does the work, so you can stop second-guessing the wine aisle.
Light food wants light wine. Rich food wants bold wine. That is most of it.
Tomato wants acidity. Spice wants a touch of sweetness. Adjust from there.
Mirror the richness, or cut the fat with acidity. Both work. Pick one.
A dish’s home region usually grew the perfect wine right next door.
A peek at the lookup table. The full version covers a dozen plates.
Plus six more in the download, with whites and reds side by side.
Half wrong. Light reds love salmon and tuna. Rich whites love roast chicken. Match the weight, not the colour.
Past about €25 you mostly pay for prestige, not pleasure. The honest sweet spot sits lower than you think.
You need a clean glass and a cold-enough bottle. The rest is shopping, not science.
