I forget where I heard about this book, but I love the idea — that we’re not all doing wine pairings with tasting menus at French restaurants, at least not on a super regular basis. But let’s face it: we all fall into wine ruts where we just grab the same bottle at the store and drink it with everything. This book steps in to tell you how to do better wine pairings, and understand (a bit) why.

From the Amazon description:

Sancerre and Cheetos go together like milk and cookies. The science behind this unholy alliance is as elemental as acid, fat, salt, and minerals. Wine pro Vanessa Price explains how to create your own pairings while proving you don’t necessarily need fancy foods to unlock the joys of wine. Building upon the outsize success of her weekly column in Grub Street, Price offers delightfully bold wine and food pairings alongside hilarious tales from her own unlikely journey as a Kentucky girl making it in the Big Apple and in the wine business.

LOVE IT. I’m getting the book for my wine-loving aunt for Christmas.

(If you’re on the hunt for a cocktail-lover in your life, I still recommend these lovely glasses from The History Company.)
