Answer 2

Traditional answer - White wines with white meats and cream sauces, red wines with read meats and tomato sauces.

Reality's answer - Drink what tastes good to you. If you prefer white...then drink it. The traditional answer is just a suggestion to match-up wines with food that will accent it and vice versa, but what is the point if you personally prefer something different?

Answer 3

beef, pork :definitely red wine

seafood: definitely white

chicken: try a rose wine

Answer 4

It's true that you should drink wines that you like.  However, some wines will actually enhance the flavor of the food.  For some basic wine pairing info go to:

http://www.cheers2wine.com/food-and-wine...

This site has lots of wines with food recommendations.  You will also find a link to a great book on pairing food and wine by Andrew Dornenburg....it's the best book I've seen on the subject and I refer to it often.
