Roasted Brussels sprouts & seared lamb sound like an odd couple—one’s green & slightly bitter, the other rich & gamey. But together, they make sense, bringing caramelization & savory depth on the plate. Add a glass of #Chapoutier ‘s Bila-Haut #CôtesduRoussillon Villages to wash it down. Pure joy!

Unfiltered, moreish #Saperavi from #Georgia ’s Teliani Valley Winery 97 that paints everything it touches (tongue included!). Opaque, dark ruby-purple, bursting w/ intense ripe black fruits & baking spice, wood & tobacco hints. Juicy, acidic freshness ends w/ firm but beautifully integrated tannin.

Our take on Casarecce—loaded with baby octopus, eggplant, and olives, all simmered in a rich tomato sauce. It’s rustic, hearty, and ridiculously good with Taylor’s Jaraman Pinot Noir #redwine from Australia.

Pale salmon hues, bursting with berry-citrus aromas & finishing crisp w/ a whisper of minerality. Château Roubine’s La Vie en Rosé is endlessly refreshing!

And it proved to be the perfect sidekick to Armenian-style Qalagosh, the herby Jalapeño Chicken Sizzler & the flavor-packed Turkish Lahmacun.

Massolino’s #Barbera d’Alba captures everything we love about this grape—elegant, fruit-driven with a touch of savoriness & well-rounded with a rich texture. Paired with these Nizami classics at our previous wine lunch, it was a perfect match that left our guests floored!

Fiano, Southern Italy’s 2,000-year-old “bee’s grape,” is back in the spotlight.

Here’s Rivera’s Scariazzo Fiano from Puglia—full of character, texturally rich, and very versatile. A dream match with Nizami appetizers at our Angsana wine lunch. Have you tried this #wine yet?

Spuds got swagger!
Packed with smoky Goan choris, bell peppers, and melted cheddar, these #bakedpotatoes are big on flavor. This deserves a #wine that can keep up.

Our pick? A Cabernet Sauvignon, with fruit, structure, and smooth tannins in perfect balance. What would be yours? #winepairing

Last Sunday at Angsana, rain met serene greens as Chef Rahul’s Nizami plates and three fine wines — Massolino Barbera d’Alba, Rivera Scariazzo Fiano, and Haart to Heart Riesling — wove seamlessly into the moment. Food, #wine, weather: all in sync.

Smoked grilled chicken, hearty black-eyed pea stew, and soft focaccia for mopping up. This deserves a befitting sidekick.

Our pick: a citrus-kissed, fruity, floral Altano Douro Naturalmente #whitewine. Effortlessly good, and way more exciting.

An unmissable #Indian duo.

Myne Reserve Cab Sauv: a boutique red #wine that delivers everything you’d expect from a top-notch Cab.

Goan chouriço: smoky, spiced, tangy Indo-Portuguese classic. Toss it into a warm salad of quinoa, bell peppers & corn, pour a glass & enjoy.

Not every day calls for a grand cru. But a well-made, easy-going South of France sunshine with a 200+ year legacy? That’s a win.

Here’s #Calvet Varietals #Chardonnay — golden in the glass, fruity and expressive, with lemony citrus, mellow pineapple, and floral hints.

Velvety baked vanilla cheesecake with spiced orange compote, honeycomb, and pomegranate jewels already sounds delicious. Now pour Dr. Loosen’s ‘L’ #Riesling — an off-dry German classic — and this pairing becomes a head-nod that says: spot on!

A gentle reset.
Intentional bites, leisurely sips, soulful catch-ups — an evening unhurried, where you’re simply allowed to be.

That’s how we’d sum up our wine dinner at Travellers Bungalow.

A juicy, boisterous GSM from the Languedoc-based rebel brand @legrandnoirwines. Paired with Mangalore’s iconic Kori Ghassi and Pork Baffat at our wine dinner.

Who knew Mangalorean spice and French flair could get along so well?

Equal parts art and attitude, Fuerza from Jumilla region blends the big, bold Monastrell (primarily) and Cabernet Sauvignon into a powerful, expressive pour—surprisingly easy to drink. Ripe red fruits, smoky oak, and sweet, well-knit tannins—hard not to finish the bottle. #winetasting #EgoBodegas

Nagaland’s smoked pork curry—made with axone, lomba & bitter eggplant—is smoky, punchy, and deeply umami.

Pair it with Montes Carménère (a grape once lost in Bordeaux, revived in Chile) and you’ve got a bold, unexpected match.

This Indian #wine is stealing hearts! Grover’s La Réserve Syrah-Grenache is a classic Rhône-style red. Big on fruit, with a good lick of spice, and polished enough to impress both newbies and the wine-woke. It’s 55% Shiraz, 45% Grenache, matured in French oak barrels for six months. #winetasting

Montes Limited Selection #Carménère is satisfying from the first sip. Ripe plum, blackberry, dark chocolate, cedar, a hint of smoke and cracked pepper hit the nose and flow seamlessly onto the palate. Soft tannins and an elegant finish keep things interesting.

When someone calls a wine foxy, they’re not talking about its charm. The term might sound flattering, but it’s more likely to make a sommelier raise an eyebrow. Let’s decode.

Provence rosés are in a league of their own — fresh, elegant, dry with that signature pale pink color.

Here’s Château Roubine, R De Roubine #Roséwine — a light, bright & chic blend of Grenache, Syrah & Cinsault, which we poured alongside prawn cakes & chicken shish at Jamie Oliver Kitchen.

Goats do Roam sounds like Côtes du Rhône, but it’s named after Fairview’s vineyard-roaming goats. A blend of traditional Rhône grapes, this #redwine is packed w/ bold berry flavors, spice, rounded tannins & a long finish. Rhône in spirit, South Africa at heart! Have you tried this yet? #winetasting

Meet Chhurpi, the soft, crumbly, tangy, umami-rich #Himalayancheese that melts into Bhutan’s Shamu Datshi—a rich stew of mushrooms, cheese & chilies.

The perfect sip for us was Altano Douro Branco—its bright acidity and citrus zest balance the dish beautifully.

Up for a taste test? #winepairing

When the sommelier swirls a glass of white #wine and goes, 'Mmm... citrus, grass, and a hint of cat pee,’ don’t be horrified. ‘Cat pee’ may sound bizarre, but it’s a legit #wineterm — here’s what it means.
