Matching Wine with Food
By Harvey Steiman, Wine Spectator editor at large


--------------------------------------!.!.!.

The first thing to remember about matching food and wine is to forget the rules!. Forget about shoulds and shouldn'ts!. Forget about complicated systems for selecting the right wine to enhance the food on the table!. This is not rocket science!. It's common sense!. Follow your instincts!.

Just choose a wine that you want to drink by itself!. Despite all the hoopla about matching wine and food, you will probably drink most of the wine without the benefit of food--either before the food is served or after you've finished your meal!. Therefore, you will not go too far wrong if you make sure the food is good and the wine is, too!. Even if the match is not perfect, you will still enjoy what you're drinking

i like a red but the rule of thumb is white,,,Www@FoodAQ@Com

You're not matching the wine to the shrimp ; you're matching it to the tomato product!.
The key to doing this is to find the dominant flavor and/ or texture of the dish and match the wine to that
Personally i would select somerthing like a Guigal
Cotes du Rhone for this dishWww@FoodAQ@Com
