FEATURE - NATTY WINE AND OYSTERS “It comes down to how you ethically and morally want to run your business. Are you prepared to take the hit to perhaps make slightly less money on a glass of wine that you know is well and responsibly made?” While natural wine comes at a greater cost and certainly adds to the difficulty of running a wine programme, for Martin Waugh and Matt Francombe, respective restaurant managers and sommeliers at Restaurant Hjem and French bistro Ophelia, both of whom have been recognised by the Star Wine List, it is also “the honourable choice” so they “make it work”. And despite its detractors and the naysayers who dismiss natty wine as a mere flash in the pan, the growing popularity of the natural wine movement is reflected in the number of fine dining establishments and bottle shops throughout the region that are serving and stocking natural or organic wines. As we found out from Martin and Matt, far from being a fad, this ancient farming technique that dates back to the Romans is here to stay, certainly at Hjem and Ophelia, who pride themselves on sourcing locally, reducing air miles and minimising their carbon footprint.

How to order wine at a restaurant Ordering wine at a restaurant can be a daunting task for some people, but it can be a fun and enjoyable experience. Here are some steps you can follow to order wine at a restaurant: 1️⃣ Don't let the price tag deter you. Focus on the wine's characteristics and how it complements your food, rather than its cost. 2️⃣ Select wines that pairs with a variety of dishes if you're dining with a group, enhancing the overall dining experience. 3️⃣Remember, it's about the experience and discovery, not the perfection of your pronunciation. Additional tip: At restaurants with quality wine service, they may present the bottle and pour a small taste for your approval, take a sip to ensure the wine isn't flawed, simply nod and approve if it's to your liking. If not, it's perfectly acceptable to request a different recommendation. What are some of the wines you like to order at a restaurant, let me know in the comments below. I’d love to know!

Reds are NOT meant to be served at "room temperature" of 72 degrees! If any restaurant sends you a bottle this warm, refuse it and have it chilled down. Do not pay restaurant prices and let them serve you warm wine that will taste like boozy fruit punch! For Cabernet, Syrah, Sangiovese, 60-63 is ideal. I find that Pinot Noir is best 55-60 degrees. If you're at home, toss the bottle in the fridge for 30-40 minutes depending on how warm your house is. Also remember, it will warm up in the glass. You'll be amazed at the difference in flavor with a wine that's served at the proper temperature! #WineWednesday #SummitFinancial #RetirementPlanning
