    Weekly Wrap-Up: Wine With Real Food, Trying Little Known Varieties and More (September 2, 2012)

    By: Jon Thorsen Published: September 2, 2012 Last Updated: April 4, 2015

     

    Welcome to this week's wrap-up!

    First up this week, over on the Reverse Wine Snob Facebook page we asked about pairing food with wine and specifically if the extravagant pairings on wine bottles appeal to you or if you'd rather see pairings of real, everyday food. The overwhelming answer? Everyday food! Have a different opinion? Check out our Facebook page and leave your comment.

    Speaking of real food, what's your favorite wine to pair with pizza? This week we covered a fantastic pizza wine, the Lagaria Syrah-Nero d'Avola Sicilia IGT 2007 - A Pizza Prerequisite. Have another favorite? Visit the Reverse Wine Snob Facebook page to join the discussion or leave a comment below.

    Lastly, one other interesting discussion this week was prompted by the Mantinia Tselepos Moschofilero 2010 - More Moschofilero Please. And that is simply, when buying wine are you adventuresome and try new varieties or do you stick with the well known? Check out the Reverse Wine Snob Facebook page to leave your opinion and don't forget to give it a like while you're there!
