To make sure we’re on a level playing field and all speaking the same language during Feast and Tweet, we’ve come up with this grading system. First, we’ll taste our wine(s) without food, and rate the wine(s). Then, we’ll take a bite of food followed by a sip of wine and rate that pairing. And so on….
A ~ It doesn’t get any better than this! Or as our friends like to say, “I need a moment alone with this, please.”
B ~ Pretty good.
C ~ Neutral. It’s not amazing, but it’s not awful.
D ~ Could be worse, but why not go for something better?
F ~ To put it politely, it’s not to my taste.
