Tannin & Taste
Curated Wine Pairings
Start with a dish, a bottle, or a dinner plan. Tannin & Taste gives calm, practical guidance for choosing wine, planning food, and saving pairings worth repeating.
Grilled, rich, peppery
Structure, dark fruit, and tannin for a rich steak with char and fat.
Decant for 25 minutes. Serve at 16-18°C in a Bordeaux glass.
Set the mood, time, budget, and effort. Tannin shapes one confident dinner direction without changing the feel of the site you already like.
Cozy · 45 mins · Nice bottle · Easy
Acidity cuts through the pan juices while restrained oak keeps the herbs and golden skin lifted.
Start with the way dinner feels: effortless, hosted, celebratory, or quietly excellent.
Go from “what should I make?” to a practical menu, wine pairing, shopping direction, and serving rhythm.
Golden skin, pan juices, citrus, and herbs. Built for Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc, Chablis, or dry rosé depending on the dinner.
Earth, butter, parmesan, and texture. A clear match for Pinot Noir or Chablis.
Heat, coconut, lime, and seafood. Off-dry Riesling does the hard work.
Fat, char, pepper, and protein. Cabernet gets the structure it needs.
Choose the direction first. Dish pairing finds the bottle. Bottle pairing finds the food.
Tell us the style, grape, or bottle. We will show dishes that make it feel intentional.
Tell Tannin what you are serving, who is coming, and the mood. Get a clear bottle sequence with hosting notes.
Choose an occasion and Tannin shapes menu direction, wine quantity, serving order, and prep rhythm.
Create or sign in with a Tannin profile first. That profile keeps your saved pairings, dinner plans, bottle notes, and taste memory together across the web experience.
Bottle styles, classic regions, comfort range, and backup options for every match.
Reads salt, fat, heat, sweetness, acid, sauce, texture, and finish so the answer is specific.
If the ideal bottle is not on the shelf, Tannin shows the next-best style and why it still works.
Date night, dinner party, gift bottle, cellar-worthy, and everyday guidance with different priorities.
Temperature, glass, decant timing, and hosting rhythm so every bottle lands beautifully.
Likes, saves, skips, and searches help future pairings feel more personal without ignoring the dish.
Tannin & Taste is being built as a calmer way to choose wine: a pairing engine that reads food structure, bottle style, and your own taste memory, then turns it into guidance you can actually use before dinner.
The system starts with trusted food data, curated wine knowledge, and practical sommelier logic. Every search, save, and bottle question helps the catalogue get sharper while keeping the advice grounded in what makes pairings work: acid, tannin, sweetness, salt, fat, texture, and finish.
Fast enough for a weeknight, polished enough for hosting, and clear enough for the wine aisle.
Public food data, curated wine styles, and first-party taste history help the engine improve without copying review prose.
Your saves and searches shape future guidance, but the app never ignores the structure of the dish.
Save the bottle decisions and hosting ideas you want to return to.
Sign in or create a Tannin profile so searches, saves, bottle notes, and dinner plans can make future suggestions feel more personal.
