DeVine Tastings is clearly focused on tasting wine, but it is hard to follow that path for very long without crossing the path of food. In this section, we offer recipes for your wine tasting party: foods to serve after your tasting-wines or to pair with your tasting-wines.
When the sole purpose of the tasting is to get to know the wine, food is best following rather than accompanying the formal tasting(and there are some foods you may want to avoid entirely. But, whether you offer a food pairing in your formal tasting or not, definitely serve some culinary reinforcements after the tasting.
Here you will find the recipes for some of our most memorable meals as well as general recommendations for wines that would pair nicely. These recipes come from our own files as well as those of other foodies par excellence. We will occasionally spotlight a foodie in our "Featured Foodie" section. David Scott Allen is our current Featured Foodie.
