Pairing Wine and Truffles

  |   January 16, 2015   |  

Pairing a wine with a truffle dish is greatly dependant on personal taste, and the particular type of dish prepared, and what kind of truffle product you are using. If the truffle is the centerpiece, go for a hearty, rustic red, and you can’t go wrong with vintages from truffle-producing regions.

  • Earthy, full bodies red wines are an excellent match to truffles and truffle dishes. Try some from the region of Rhône, France.
  • Italy’s Piedmontese wines are another excellent choice, as they are subtly aromatized with truffles.

Meet Albertina, a seasoned food writing wordsmith and marketing creative split between the sizzling vibes of Miami and the charming streets of Buenos Aires. With a solid 20 years in the traditional and digital advertising world for the gourmet food industry, she’s mastered the art of making words as mouthwatering as the dishes they describe. She’s proudly been part of the Gourmet Food Store family (and its brands) since its very beginnings, and what a fun, flavor-packed journey it has been!

Her journey began at Rutgers College, where she studied in History and Political Science, with a minor in English Lit (where are my Jane Austen fans at?). She honed her craft at The Miami Ad School in South Beach, where creativity and copy collided under the South Florida Sun. From the neon streets of South Beach to the tango beats of Buenos Aires, her pen dances with the rhythm of whatever gastronomic tales she gets to write at the time.

Currently savoring life in Buenos Aires, Argentina, she’s bilingual in English and Spanish, an avid reader, and cheese addict.

Her writing? Seasoned with creativity, spiced with experience, and garnished with a dash of wit.
