I was invited for a wine tasting event from four seasons the event was held at Fava mediterranean restaurant which has many food awards in its bag. I personally wanted to go in for a wine tasting class i was really thrilled to see an invite from FourSeasons people now have the knowledge that wine is good for health since it has 10 to 12% alcohol and is good for heart and skin overall wine is good for health when consumed moderately.
Fava serves up mediterranean food its located in UB city Bangalore.
Fourseasons is an Indian winery which is located at Baramati Pune the wine is prepared from locally grown grapes from Sahyadri valley in Maharashtra, India...good quality wines at reasonable price...
We tasted four different wines Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, Cabernet Sauvignon and Blush Rose...
Normally white wine is served with fish chicken or veg food and dark wines are served for dense meats like lamb beef pork etc...but during the wine tasting session Mr.Amit from UB spirits told that these days people tend to mix wine according to their liking its not like white wines are served only for fish and chicken it can be served along with lamb meat too..
Its always good to chill the wine before serving and its always a good idea to vent the red wines before serving as shown in the pic...if your serving up 3 to 4 different wines its always good to cleanse you palette with water...what are you waiting for open your mind, put your pre-conceptions aside, and get out and taste. Four Seasons has great local wines to satisfy your inner wine nerd…or to just drink without pretense.
Few Dips at display could not resist clicking a few pics just to make your mouth water for more...
Mr.Amit from UB Spirits starting the wine tasting session...
Starting with Sauvignon Blanc which is a milder version compared to the rest...its Vibrant acidity stands up well with many dishes...
Blush the rosy colored wine tastes really good with grilled food and salads you can surely pair them up with tandoori recipes...
Cabernet Sauvignon the darkest burgundy colored wine was excellent with chocolate truffles this wine has distinctive oak and smokey flavors...
Amit also gave us a taste test with limes just to see how we salivate after we combine wine and lime this helps us to understand the acidity in the wine...
Our experiments proceeded with food and wine I ordered the crab meat and hummus along with pita bread I liked Sauvignon Blanc it tasted really good absolutely recommend to serve for fish recipes...
Dad ordered chicken salad with couscous and grapes I tasted it with the blush it was prefect combo paired really well with the salad...
Main course Chicken breast stuffed with caramelized onion and cream sauce this again tasted well with Sauvignon Blanc...
Harissa Grilled Fish with vegetables tasted excellent with Blush and Sauvignon Blanc...
Dessert Chocolate Pudding, Turkish coffee and truffles paired with Cabernet Sauvignon was excellent...
Good Food Good Wine Good Company thats all a food blogger can ask for...thanks to Four Seasons for giving me an opportunity to taste and savor their wines surely going to purchase and recommend other to do so...Four seasons wines are best for gifts Diwali and Christmas is just round the corner so start planning or just to surprise a special some one at home for dinner...:)
