"Food And Wine Harmony"
Wine and Food pairing is an art of matching food dishes with wine
to enhance the dining experience.

This is one of the most difficult jobs for sommeliers to match perfect
wine with a food. Most of the wine critics believe that the most basic characteristic
of pairing food and wine understands the balance between the weight, flavor,
and texture of food and wine. Rather than following set rules, for example, specific
wine goes with particular cuisine or food and white wine with white meat and
red wine with red meat.
Apart from that, traditional rules, in recent years, scientific method of
balancing food and wine is been taken into consideration and it all being
evaluated by the sensory analysis. The concept behind matching is that some
elements of food and wine reacts opposite to each other and by balancing the
elements will make the dining experience more enjoyable.

"Storage of Wines"
Storage is an important task for wine that is being kept for long-term
aging. While most wine is consumed within 24 hours of purchase, fine wines are
often set aside for long-term storage. Wine is one of the few commodities that
can improve with age but it can also rapidly weaken if kept in poor conditions.
There are three direct factors effects on a wine’s condition
are light, humidity and temperature. A fourth consideration can be security for
expensive wines. Historically the storage of wine was handled by wine merchants
but since the mid-20th century consumers have been increasingly storing their
own wine in home-based wine cellars Three factors that have the most
pronounced effect on wine in storage: light, humidity and temperature.
"Light"
Strong, direct sunlight light can badly react on wine so keep it in the
