New Book
Wine and food are meant to be enjoyed together. This fresh look at a classic subject covers the essential grape varieties that wine lovers need to know, as well as fifty elegantly simple and delicious recipes to savor alongside. “One of the most approachable books on wine I’ve seen.”—David Lebovitz, author of Drinking French. Wine Style is the modern, casual guide to finding which wines you love and with which foods to pair them. There are no rules here (especially none of the old-fashioned ones, like “seafood should always be paired with white”). Whether you’re looking to find an affordable new mainstay bottle for weeknight dinners, incorporate dessert wines into your routine, or learn how orange wine is made, Wine Style has you covered. And what could be a more delicious and fun way to explore different varietals than by cooking the perfect complementary snacks and dishes to go with them? You’re bound to find new favorites—in foods and wines alike—with winning combinations such as baked lemony feta with crisp white wine; caramelized cabbage and onion galette with a serious red; smoked salmon spaghetti with sparkling wine; and so much more. Discover new wines alongside incredible—and incredibly easy—recipes. With its modern approach to food and drink, Wine Style injects some much-needed fun into the world of wine tasting.
