This week we will be looking at classic food and wine pairings for a four course dinner party. Matching food and wine can be challenging as you need each element to complement the other, as well as catering to your own likes and dislikes. Certain food flavours can completely change the taste of a wine, some making it fly, others turning it bitter. This week we will give you some ideas on what will bring out the best flavours. Don't forget we can always give advice on the great pairings so just ask!

There's nothing better than a bit of fizz as an aperitif to start your dinner party. Prosecco is great on its own but can really come alive with a splash of colour and a bit of clever blending. Here are a couple of recipes for inspiration!

Rose-ecco
Fill a champagne flute with Prosecco and add a tablespoon of rose syrup. Let it slide down the inside of the glass until it sits in a pool at the bottom.
