Name a wine-food pairing that simply would NOT do?
myself: Sauvignon Blanc and Hostess Ding Dongs
Answers:
The food pairing challenge they use in some sommelier exams is fresh pineapple.
The extreme acidity of pineapple combined with its intense sweetness makes it almost impossible to make a wine match. So think Bordeaux and pineapple and grimace, or almost any other wine you can think of.
Oh, and what is the least worst match? A sweet Asti spumante
