Pairing Night Part 2: The Feast! With Dr. Hoby Wedler

In this continuation from last week's episode, I'm joined by my good friend and blind sensory guide, Dr Hoby Wedler, his partner Justin, my other half Michael and my lifelong friend Dr. Kim from Virginia.

Last week we talked about some guidelines for food and wine pairing, with Dr Hoby coming at it from the scientific standpoint (with his PhD in Organic Chemistry).

Now you get to pull up a stool at my kitchen island as the 5 of us cook together, try different wine pairings and share tips and recipes for you to try at home!
