Take-out Food and Wine Pairings

By Paul Carfagnini

Carryout.  Delivery.  Drive-thru.  Heat and eat.  America is a nation of on-the-go eaters.  We're also a nation of wine lovers.  

But even after 10 steady years of wine consumption growth in this country, only about 40 percent of wine drinkers say they are likely to enjoy wine at home with takeout, according to a new study from the Wine Market Council and Merrill Research.

 "Wine and food are meant to be enjoyed together -- and that holds true whether you're having a five-course gourmet meal or a takeout burrito," insists wine expert Andrea Robinson, Master Sommelier, author of "Everyday Dining with Wine and Great Wine Made Simple" and host of the new wine pairing/cooking show "Pairings with Andrea," on the Fine Living Network.

Robinson has teamed up with the Wine Market Council to share wine pairings for America's favorite on-the-go eats.
