“I believe you haven’t truly tasted Malbec until you do so, overlooking the vineyards from which it was born.”

“Choosing a wine to pair with escargot is difficult. The escargot have been grilled with garlic butter and have a strong, meaty taste.
But they're neither seafood nor red meat. So none of these wines would be right."
"But I thought escargot was a common dish in France. So wouldn't they know what the right wine pairing would be?"
"Like Koizumi-san said, Chablis, Meursalt or Pouilly Fuissé wouldn't go well with the escargot. Even with red wine, you'd have to choose a very full-bodied one.
Try tasting the escargot with Koshino-Karoku."
"The strong aftertaste of the garlic butter is washed away. It's a lot more refreshing!"
"And it helps bring out the rustic flavor of the escargot!”
