Wine Pairing Skill

Recommends wine pairings for meals based on flavor profiles, weight matching, and pairing principles.

Usage

echo "Wine Pairing Principles:"
echo "1. Match wine weight to food weight"
echo "2. Complement (similar flavors) or contrast (opposing)"
echo "3. Acidic wines pair well with fatty or salty foods"
echo "4. Sweet wines balance spicy dishes"
echo "5. Red with red meat, white with fish (but rules are flexible)"

Examples

  • "Wine for grilled salmon" -> Recommends Pinot Noir or Chardonnay with reasoning
  • "Pair wine with pasta carbonara" -> Suggests wines matching the rich, creamy dish
  • "Budget-friendly wine for a dinner party" -> Recommends quality options under $15

Guidelines

  • Consider the sauce and preparation method, not just the protein
  • Offer multiple options at different price points
  • Note that personal preference matters more than rules
