    Chips & Myths Series Part 3: Wines with Screwcaps are Cheap Quality

    Chips & Myths Series Part 3: Wines with Screwcaps are Cheap Quality

    Happy Wine Wednesday! Today's episode is part 3 and the last part of my "Chips & Myths" series, where I eat chips with wine and debunk common myths in the wine industry. For the wine segment today I go the *spicy* route and pair the TJ's version of takis with a dry Riesling. Another 10/10 let me tell you! I've had many screwcap wines on the podcast and wanted to touch on the misconception that... they're cheap quality. This wine pairing was a screwcap and let me tell you... it was great! Listen to hear more reasons why screwcaps are not anything to do with quality, and thank you for tuning in to my series the past weeks!

    Chips & Myths Series Part 1: White Wine Pairs with Chicken & Fish

    Chips & Myths Series Part 1: White Wine Pairs with Chicken & Fish

    Happy Wine Wednesday! Today's episode is part 1 of my "Chips & Myths" series, where I eat chips with wine and debunk common myths in the wine industry. For the wine segment today I try pairing a sauvignon blanc with sour cream and onion chips which was... interesting. I also included some crunchy ASMR lol. Then I give some pointers on why the common myth of "white wine only pairs with chicken or fish" is a blanket statement that is NOT entirely true. Plus, I also give some alternative recommendations for these types of dishes. Hope you enjoy this series and stay tuned for part 2!
