There is a wonderful food and wine event out there called the Great Taste Challenge that you have to discover.

It’s all about people from all over the US getting their favorite recipes and pairing them up with their favorite wines.

From start to finish the entire thing is done on video. The ingredients used, how they’re prepared, how the stove is set and then how the meal is actually created. All done for everyone to see and it is an absolute blast!

And the response as far as entries has never been more vibrant.

And the biggest idea here is that there are no longer rules as to what wines have to be paired with what types of dishes.

A red wine does not necessarily have to go with a beef dish.

And it is not mandatory for a chicken or a fish dinner to be paired with a white wine.

In fact The Great Taste Challenge is all about expressionism and individuality. What do YOU believe is the best wine to pair with your best recipe? That’s really what’s brought to the surface here…what do you think is best? This is a food and wine event that changes everything!

Some of the entries into the Challenge were absolutely gorgeous and delicious.

And now comes the really exciting part.

Now you get to go and watch those videos and vote on the one or ones that you love the most!

This is the real social part of the contest. This is where everyone else gets to sift through the semi finalists and decide who should move on to possibly win the grand prize! How American Idol cool is that?

What a tremendous food and wine event. And also one that you can vote on this year and participate in next year!

Make sure you look out for more info about The Great Taste Challenge and never lose your passion for those recipes and those wine pairings!!!
