"Traditional wine and food pairing combinations were debunked during a presentation by Dr Peter Klosse, founder and owner of the Academy of Gastronomy in The Netherlands.
Speaking at the Fine & Rare Specialist course at Vienna’s Palais Coburg on 1 July, Klosse criticised classic food and wine matches such as Pauillac with lamb or white wine with fish.
'People say Pauillac goes with lamb, but there are many types of Pauillac…and you are told to have white wine with fish, as though all white wines and all fish are the same.' "
