Thrilled to share a terrific new book with my network: The Art of Spice and Wine Pairing.

This is the first book I’ve seen that truly tackles the three-way relationship between food, wine, and spices in a practical, engaging way. It goes far beyond the old “white with fish, red with meat” rule and shows how spices are often the real key to getting a pairing right.

As the authors put it, we’ve all heard the classic pairing rules… “Well, it’s not that simple. Spices make all the difference!”

Coauthor Joe Lertch is a seasoned beverage industry professional and the owner of the awardwinning Vineyard Wine Bar in Maryland, a longtime destination for serious wine & food lovers: https://www.vineyardwinebar.com/

“I’ve had the privilege of knowing Joe for many years through his long history in the wine business. He knows his stuff!”

If you’re passionate about wine, food, or hospitality, I highly recommend checking it out. www.thewinematrix.com
