Background

There are some people who think Chinese Cuisine cannot be paired with wine. When asked why, these same people use the excuse, ‘Because wine is not a Chinese product’. If that were the reason, then Chinese food cannot be eaten with beer, nor cognac, but only with Chinese tea. In fact, most young Chinese hardly drink Chinese tea anymore, preferring soft drinks with their meals.

What we eat with what we drink is cultivated through discovery, recommendations and trials. After a while, like most other things in life, they become habit forming.

Perfect Pairings Awards.com is a wine competition that places Chinese Cuisine at the very heart of its focus and attention. In 2012, select popular dishes will be identified in Singapore, Hong Kong and Shanghai. These will be tasted with wines from around the world and assessed for their pairing suitability. Interested parties can submit their wines for one, two or all three cities.

Expert Judges

Panels of opinion leaders and wine experts will taste the dishes and the wines and determine which are Good and Perfect Pairings.

Each panel will comprise three judges.

‘Good Pairing Award’ & ‘Perfect Pairing Award’

Where two judges are of the view that a wine pairs well with a dish, that wine is given a ‘Good Pairing Award’. Where all three judges are of the view that a wine pairs well with a dish, that wine will be accorded a ‘Perfect Pairing Award’.

背景

有些人认为中菜不能和葡萄酒配搭，当询及为什么，他们的理由都是：“因为葡萄酒不是中国人的产品”。如果这个理由成立，那中菜就不能和啤酒或法国白兰地配搭了，只能配以中国茶。实际上，很多年轻中国人已不太喝中国茶了，他们更倾向于在用餐时喝汽水。

我们以什么食物配搭什么饮料，是通过发掘、推荐或实验培养起来的。过了一阵子，就如其他事物般，渐渐成了习惯。

葡萄酒配搭美食绝配大奖，是一个将焦点和注意力集中在中菜的全新葡萄酒比赛。2012年，新加坡，香港和上海赛区将选出几道受欢迎的菜肴。这些菜肴已和来自全球各地的葡萄酒进行配搭，以评估它们之间的配搭度。有意参加的酒庄和酒商，可参与一个、两个或全部3个赛区。

专业评审

独立意见人士和葡萄酒专家品尝了中菜和葡萄酒后，会确定哪些葡萄酒属于优选，哪些属于绝配。

每组评审团将有三位。

“绝配奖”和“优选奖”

如果有两名评审觉得某个葡萄酒与特定菜肴配搭得好，该葡萄酒将获得“绝配奖” (Good Pairing award)；若三个评审都认为某个葡萄酒与特定菜肴配搭得好，那该葡萄酒将获得“优选奖” (Perfect Pairing award)。
