Swirling your glass of wine and enjoying it while you let your hair down at home, or at a party is not so much a luxury anymore as it is a choice of drink for many people with many affordable ones accessible. As Sula Wines opens its Initial Public Offering (IPO) this morning, it could not be a better time to get a class in how to pair your wine with your food. The fact that it is the festive season with Christmas around the corner means that a lot more people will be looking to enjoy the alcohol with some good food.
While rum and whiskey are the usual favourites during this time, city chefs observe that a lot more people are opting to drink wine now more than before. Kevin Rodrigues, bar manager with KA Hospitality, that runs Cin Cin in Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) explains, "Consumers are now indulging more in wine over spirits during meals as it adds an element of pairing food with wine and experiencing something exquisite." Rodrigues says it is primarily because of how much exposure people have got because they have been travelling around the world. "Wine is versatile and can be paired harmoniously with a wide range of food," he adds.
