Matching Food and Wine U-Line Wine Guide Looking Behind the Label To most, wine is a delicious mystery. We purchase it, uncork it, and savor its taste and beauty. But there is so much more to true wine appreciation. Many secrets are simply too good to keep bottled up. Although there are no hard fast rules for matching wine to food, observe some guidelines. Delicate dishes should be accompanied by lighter more delicate wines. Full-flavored foods should be matched with fuller-bodied wines.
The Cork: A Mystery on Its Own. Ideal Wine Storage Considerations Cork Presentation. The ritual of the presentation of the cork has a rich and fascinating history dating back to the late 1800’s. A phylloxera (root louse) devastation to the vineyards severely limited the supply of great wines. Restaurateurs would remove labels on inferior wines and replace them with labels from superior wines.
Wine Stocking Recommendation Wine Rack Removal and Installation Specially designed horizontal wine racks properly positioned the bottles so the wine remains in contact with the cork and ensure the cork does not become dry. To remove a rack from the cabinet: 1. Remove any bottles stored on the rack. 2. Grasp the end of the rack, and gently slide it out until it stops. Stock the unit as follows: 1. Stock the wine racks beginning with the lowest rack, at the back, and working forward.
