Each month, members of the Court of Master Sommeliers, an international association of wine experts, suggest wine pairings for popular menu items. Here, they offer up both premium and bargain wines that complement a variety of hearty dishes. The sommeliers do not represent or have a financial interest in any of their recommendations.
The Court of Master Sommeliers (CMS) was established in 1977 to promote excellence in restaurant and hotel beverage service. It is the premiere international examining body for wine knowledge and beverage service. CMS Americas consists of only 106 individuals who have earned the title of Master Sommelier through their proven mastery of the art, science and history that inform a sommelier’s work.
