Better Wine Pairing with Widgets

Yes: It's an iPad. And it's in in your kitchen.

As everyone continues the countdown to Thanksgiving—either with delight and relief, if you’re a guest, or with delight and panic if you’re a host—we’ve been discussing the difficulty of pairing wine with the bounty one usually finds on the table. Although they may not necessarily solve all of your problems on this front, a few places online have produced widgets that offer suggestions with just a few easy clicks of the mouse button.

Wined In doesn’t have the most elegant-looking engine, but it does give you a long list of options and allows you to add your own suggestions for other users.

Wine Web Central has a unique “slider” mechanism, lets you search by type of food and type of spice, and also gives you suggestions on a scale of Good/Better/Best.

Canadian wine writer Natalie Maclean produced this widget using eight years of wine pairing advice and research.

Hello Vino uses a forking pathway style, asking you questions as you go along to try and narrow down the best wine for any occasion. It’s downloadable for use on your own website … and it even opens up a seasonal feature for Thanksgiving dinner!
