Thanks for all the great responses we received lto last weeks question. We appreciate it! As Uncorked...A Wine Experience will feature food, we want to know what you like to eat while drinking wine. This weeks question has to do with food and wine parings. What are your favorite foods to pair with wine?
This maybe too easy (read: cop-out) but steak is at the top of the list for me. For lighter fair, cheese and fruit is good. But a steak and good glass of red .... mmmmmmm.
Right there with you on the steak Braden!! Thanks for the comments. We have some great thoughts on what we will be serving at Uncorked, some obvious, but most not so obvious. Stay tuned!!
Chocolate is also a given! I especially love dark chocolate with my ports and ice wines. On the lighter side, scallops and pickled herring are great with a sharp, crisp white.

I am a huge fan of dark chocolates with a bold red as well. Great call!! I like the seafood choices for the wites as well, thank you for that.
I love going to sunflower and getting the the small, sample packages of cheese (usually under $4). A pear and an apple with some Kashi crackers (only because thats whats on hand at sunflower). I find that I can enjoy these items with most any food.
I had some nice French Reds Saturday eveing at L'Explorator with my venicen and they paired nicely.
Pears and Cucumbers with a nice NZ Sav. Blanc in the summer on the patio with a nice tripple creme brie! Yummmmmmmmmm
Must have cheese, lots of it, lots of different types! And a list of cheese that go well with what wines, so the waiters don't get too sick of telling people!
Any form of Tapas, I love easy to eat foods especially when I am trying to focus on the wine...
