Bordeaux, pairing its wines with Japanese cuisine

EDITORIALBORDEAUX, ALLIANCE OF ITS WINES WITH JAPANESE CUISINEWhen I think of this title, I am proud and happy to present to you this recipe book featuring a fusion of Japanese & French cuisine with Bordeaux wines.As the writer and editor of this new collection, I can assure you that this pleasure and pride are multiplied for me because you are now in possession of the first book on food and wine pairings between Japanese cuisine and Bordeaux wines.I noticed that Bordeaux wines were traveling throughout Japan for wine enthusiasts, but there was a lack of pairings between Japanese cuisine and Bordeaux wines.The first pairing is my collaboration with Takénori Shindo, a consultant and chef who carefully selected Japanese dishes to complement the complex notes of the Bordeaux wines that I had selected, tasted, and rated with our team of Japanese & French sommeliers, tasting over 200 wines.This culinary journey through Japan and Bordeaux wines will inspire you to match wines and dishes on your table or at a restaurant and share our most beautiful wine discoveries, seeking harmony between the dish and the wine because wines enhance the flavor of a dish.You will discover that there are many pairings with the same wine or dish because it is easier to match a dish with a wine.Let's not forget that the best food and wine pairings will always be linked to the ambiance of your table, your mood, as well as that of your guests, and of course, to the quality of the dishes and wines you serve.In the second part of the book, you will find the presentation of the properties because behind a wine, there is a whole story: you will discover the properties from the inside and the châteaux that offer architectural, heritage, and family charm, inviting you to uncover some of the secrets that make Bordeaux wines quality.In the third part of the book, "TREAT YOURSELF TO A STOP IN BORDEAUX"World capital of wine and the French art of living, Bordeaux offers you the charms and splendors of one of the most harmonious European architectural ensembles of the 18th century.
