    The CDA Gourmet Wine Word of the Week - Complementary

    This describes a pairing where the flavors of the wine and food enhance each other, creating a new and more complex flavor profile. For example, a crisp Sauvignon Blanc can complement the citrusy notes in a seafood dish.

    Mentions: Luke Marquis, Mollydooker, Rosemary Manor.

    Some Wines we enjoyed this week: Rocky Pond Stratastone White, Louis M. Martini Sauvignon Blanc, Harumph Cabernet Sauvignon, Mer Soleil Chardonnay, Elsom Cellars Isabella, David Duband Louis Auguste Bourgogne Hautes- Côtes de Nuits (red Burgundy) and a Lòfos Xinomavro Rosé.
