Interactive Wine Food Pairings

Looking for that nice pairing of wine and food? In my opinion, if the food is good, the wine is good, and the company is at least tolerable, pairings won’t really matter too much. However, here are some guidelines if you are looking for that extra touch. The larger the circle, the better the pairing. (Data values provided by Wine Folly)
