The SpringWise newsletter recently profiled a great wine and food pairing tool - HelloVino.
According to the newsletter, "Users in search of wine advice merely visit Hello Vino online or text the word HELLOVINO to 368266. The tool then guides them through a simple question-and-answer process, asking first if the wine they seek is for with a meal, for an occasion, of a specific taste or style or from a particular region."
I tried HelloVino recently, seeking a match for pizza. The service returned a recommendation of Nero D'Avola for my specific pizza toppings.
I then asked for a suggestion for sushi, and was pointed to a fruity Chardonnay for my salmon roll.
I like the mobile aspect of this service - it is a simple tool that a wine drinker can use to make a simple wine choice from a limited wine list in a restaurant or as a guide to finding a wine while shopping for a wine to accompany takeout or a home made meal.
