    Following is a transcript of the video:
    Amelia Singer: Hi my name is Amelia Singer and I’m a wine expert, TV presenter on the wine show, and I run my own wine tasting and consultancy business, Amelia’s wine.
    Everyone thinks red wine and cheese is really great. I know it’s really romantic and it’s the iconic image of valentines day or some kind of rom-com, but guys it really doesn’t do justice to either the wine or the cheese. If you really love both, then you think about this.
    So effectively cheese can have quite a lot of acidity, particularly goat’s and sheep’s cheeses and hard cheeses and when you match it with a red wine, which often doesn’t have the same acidity and actually normally has quite a bit of tannin and alcohol. What’s going to happen is it’s going to clash and only exacerbates the acidity, and the tannin, and the alcohol levels. It’s going to dry out your wine, and it’s going to completely dry out your cheese. No, go.
    My own personal pet peeve is that white wine is served too cold and red wine is served too warm. Why is this important? Well, when a wine is cold it basically mutes it and means that it’s not able to express its aroma and its full range of flavour compounds, now if you have a really cheap insipid white wine that’s fine; my mother’s Pinot Grigio with ice.
    However if you are having something more complex, or something which is really meant to be fruity and perfumed then take it outside the fridge, maybe pour it in your glass and maybe let it open up a bit for 5 minutes. Same thing for reds, often particularly with really light, aromatic, juicy red wine. Shove that red wine in the fridge for half an hour, take it out and then you’ll find that instantly the aromas will become way more intense, it’ll be fresher and fruitier and then what’s quite fun is you can just see how it evolves in your glass.
    Sometimes, like people, the wine just needs to breathe and chill out before you’re actually going to get its true potential and particularly if you’ve got really alcoholic muscular red wine and it’s very young, you know it’s got lots of testosterone and you’re just like chill out.
    Just open it up, you need to pour it out, you can pour it out into a decanter if you want to be posh, or you can pour it into a water jug. Basically, anything that will allow the wine to aerate and release it’s flavour compounds.
    In regards to wine glassware, people can get really stressed out. which again is sad, if you have a beautiful wine and you’ve only got a mug available just go for it. However, if you really want to taste and appreciate the nuances in your glass of wine it can make a difference.
    You really want to keep the bubbles in your sparkling wine, carbon dioxide can basically travel up the glass to keep the bubbles bubblier when you have a flute, which is this here. And always you want to hold it down here because you don’t want to heat up your sparkling wine.
    You can hold a red wine glass like that if you want to warm up your red wine, that is perfectly acceptable. And I have sometimes done it, this is a white wine glass when someone serves me “whice” white wine which is as cold as ice and you then can’t taste anything. then if I want to warm it up then it’s perfectly acceptable.
    By keeping it narrower, and keeping the bowl smaller you can concentrate the perfume and you can also keep it cooler. This would be perfect for your Sauvignon Blancs, your Rieslings. Anything citrusy, juicy perfumed something like this is great. However for your red wine, generally you want the surface area to be slightly rounder because red wine has got lots of layers which it needs to open up.
    To really actually help along with the aeration process, do give it a swirl there is a reason why wine people swirl their glasses it’s not purely to be pretentious it actually does really help with the tasting process.

    Although keep in mind that having wine with cheese or any food may benefit your teeth by calming down the acidity from the wine so it doesn't harm your enamel as much (even though it still will lol). So cheers 🍷🍷🍷

    Ofc, if someone feels they don't get what they want from it, then some tips can help change the way it tastes.
    But you can never ever say that what someone likes more is wrong...
    If you like cheese with wine, and it tastes great, just eat & drink it. Dont be discouraged what some random snob says...

    there's always a video about wine mistakes but in reality, there are no real rules if you do it all the wrong way and love it then keep on doing it why dull your experience with rules.
    I was in southern Portugal a couple of years back and saw that some inhabitants of the region left their port wine in racks in the scorching hot sun outside! well, they like their port of last years vintage quite warm! and at first, I thought yuck! but when I tasted it, it blew me away! and now once in a while, I put a young port under a heat lamp. try it! it is totally against the rules but it is soooo!!! good!!
    (you have no heat lamp well, put it in hot water for 10 minutes it has the same effect)

      @tinovanderzwanphonocave544 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      haha! I should make a video ''how not to obey the wine rules and enjoy it even better!''
      some types of cheese go well in ports and wine just one small block of chevre goats cheese dunk it in your glass and keep in there while drinking and refilling just before the end of the party you'll have a nice snack to finish with you can do the same with a big greek olive.
      combine wine or port with herbs put a fresh branch of rosemary completely in the bottle and leave it for several hours it is quite nice you can also use a branch of mint or other herbs just experiment (i would advise using young wines)
      drink wine or port directly from the bottle well, use smaller bottles.
      when I would go fishing I would always break glasses well it leaves a mess for people and animals to hurt themselves and the people at home won't be pleased either.
      bottles don't break that easily and you can cork them so they won't spill when they fall over and wine outside always tastes different anyway I found that holding the bottle (like you would a bottle of beer) improves the taste while the glass gets simply too cold.

      I would still say (as a suggestion) that red wine at room temp is fine, but that means something like a room in France during spring, if you are in the Texas summer, I think most people would agree it's better to chill your red wine a bit, if they tried it.

    Wines with heavy tannin benefit enormously from being paired with certain cheeses. The simple logic is that lactic acid in cheese balances the tannic acid produced by tannins. It’s really quite simple, and to hear a so-called ‘wine expert” immediately refute this unalienable maxim is just insane. The same can be said for certain white wines that undergo secondary malolactic fermentation. Again, the lactic acid in cheese compliments the wine’s mouthfeel after mall in acid is converted to lactic acid in the wine (think “buttery” Chardonnay etc...) I think Business Insider needs to vet their content more fully before blasting this stuff into the TH-cam universe. Wine as a subject in general has been so mystified by all of this non-sense, it’s time to produce real content that real consumers can relate to.

    Agreed. I am a 'wine expert' too (although I absolutely hate to call myself that because too many pretentious people call themselves that, it's even kind of a signature of it in fact probably) and saying wine doesn't go with cheese as a general rule seems absolutely ridiculous. Why would millions of people enjoy the pairing but someone can still decide it's not working!?! Winemakers say it's fine, cheese makers say it's fine, centuries of tradition all over Europe says it's fine, and a wine expert can just jump in and pretend it's a disaster!
    Of course, you could say that wine doesn't go with seafood, french fries, pizza, asparagus, artichokes, grilled meat and apple pie. That would be just as incorrect. Perhaps some wines dont go with those. But what about the huge variety of wine styles? (and the immense variety of cheeses, nothing works, that's it?!). I don't like to criticize fellow wine lovers who make videos educating about wine, because i make some myself and I know it's hard to generalize and explain wine, but this is just really wrong.

    I find that red wines taste great with hard cheeses and whites generally pair well with with soft cheeses. Everyone is different so it’s hard to say “you won’t like this combination of foods”. Each individual has to try it for themselves, but general suggestions are helpful for people who want to learn more about wine but don’t have a lot of experience. The risk of saying “you’re doing it wrong” is that it can make people reluctant to try more wines because they don’t feel like they belong. You wouldn’t invite someone to a museum and say “I’ll tell you which art is good and which is rubbish”. The individual gets to decide for themselves what they like; there is no right or wrong. That said, I absolutely agree on the importance of getting the temperature right because it does help the flavors come out, much like beer is going to taste much better cold than not (except for stouts and such). I like to drink sparkling and white wine in a glass big enough to get my nose in so I can really take in the aromas. The smaller glasses limit my experience. Finally, that whole practice of slurping wine just seems like you’re trying too hard. If it works for you, great, but I’ve tried it and don’t feel like it really added anything to the experience. If you were only allowed one sip of the wine then maybe it makes sense, but I find that drinking a glass of wine gives me ample opportunity to understand what it tastes like without trying to figure it all out in the first sip.

    Wine and cheese works great, it just depends on the specific combo:
    Acidic cheese like Feta - fresh and acidic white wines like Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Albariño, unoaked Chardonnay like Chablis
    Bold hard cheese - slightly sweet and less tannic full bodied red wines like Amarone, Ripasso, Appassimento, Governo, as well as a lot of portuguese red wines. Also sweet white wines
    Medium bold hard cheese - most of the red winestyles above with the exception of Amarone. Here you can also have successfull pairings with oaked Chardonnay
    Blue cheese - sweet wines like Sauternes, Tokaj, Beerenauslese and Trockenbeerenauslese
    Brie cheese - dry sparkling wine, the extra fat content goes perfect with the bubbles. Also like someone else stated you can pair it with lighter red wines like Pinot Noir, or a light Valpolicella
    Edit: If it's an aged and bold brie, then skip the wine and grab a Saison beer.
    If you're unsure or if you have a very mixed plate, then Port Wine is a safe bet as it has the sweetness, but you also take smaller sips from it so it gets less critical.
