The October issue of Food and Wine Magazine is devoted entirely to the enjoyment of wine and is definitely worth picking up. *It is chock full of wine tips, suggestions and buying strategies from top sommeliers and wine afficionados around the country. One article in particular written by F&W's resident wine expert, Ray Isle, really caught my fancy. He does a fanstastic job of breaking down 15 of the most popular grape varieties and styles of wine and what to eat with them. The online version of the article also matches each category to complimentary recipes.
Ray also has an informative wine blog, The Tasting Room. I really enjoy his friendly and non-intimidating approach to wine.
*I was quoted in this issue for an article titled, "Wines for Drinking and Not Overthinking"
