Wine Food Pairing Declares a State of Emergnecy!

Wine food pairing is declaring a state of emergency. This is my neighborhood and don't get me wrong, I love where I live, but occasionally Mother Nature plays a little joke on us and sends us a visitor. Right now, the unwanted guests name is FAY! As in Tropical Storm / Hurricane Fay .... well of course we are battening down the hatches, putting up shutters and going for those last few essentials to complete our hurricane kit.


I've lived in Florida for 30 years now, so I know the drill. I have my batteries, crank up radio, extra water and my gas tank is full .... but, my friends, I did not expect the supply of Pinot Grigio in the City of Naples to be depleted! How can I weather the storm without my favorite chilled white wine? Of course there was Reisling or Chardonnay on the shelves, but for something as critical as a hurricane it must be my favorite Pinot Grigio.

So while there was water available and plenty of red wine ....

So I have declared a state of emergency. I only have one bottle left in my wine closet and it must suffice. I hope this storm does not linger about.

Wine hurricane pairing is an exact science and it has rules!

Ok, I must leave you all for now and complete my preparations .....
