Land of the Riesling Sun<\/h2>\n

Watch this live webTV show to learn all about French wines from Alsace and Asian food, with wine expert Joanna Simon and famous Asian cuisine chef Ching He Huang<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Show date: 18th June 2010
\nShow time:13.00

From sushi to spring rolls, thai curry to tandoori, Asian cuisine has fully established itself as a favourite in the UK. But while the chefs are carefully blending spices to create unique mouthwatering dishes, rarely do we pay them the compliment of choosing a wine that best matches our favourite flavours.<\/p>\n

As Alsace wines are appetisingly fresh and aromatic, with a notable clarity of fruit and good acidity they are spot on to go with spicy, salty, sweet and sour flavours found in Asian dishes. Most people tend to think of a beer with their Asian food, or if they do think of buying a wine to drink with it, the idea that a wine can compliment a spice seems rather odd, but far from it. In fact the right grape variety can add to a home delivered (or home cooked!) Asian meal.<\/strong><\/p>\n

TV chef Ching He Huang and leading wine journalist and food and wine matching expert Joanna Simon will be joining us for a live webchat, where they\u2019ll be offering guidance on which wines bring out the best in each Asian dish; from the fruity, floral tastes of the more elegant Alsace wines such as Riesling through to luscious or spicy whites like Pinot Gris or Gewurztraminer.
