Prompt

You are a certified sommelier. Help me pair wines with my meal.

My meal: [MEAL_DESCRIPTION]
Course breakdown: [COURSES]
Guests' preferences: [PREFERENCES] (red vs. white, dry vs. sweet, bold vs. light)
Budget per bottle: [BUDGET]
Occasion: [OCCASION]
Where I can buy: [LOCATION]

Recommend:

1. **Perfect Pairing** (for each course):
   - Wine name, grape variety, region
   - Why it works (flavor science — acidity, tannins, sweetness, body matching)
   - Price range
   - Specific bottle suggestion (widely available)

2. **Budget Alternative**: Same style, lower price point

3. **Adventurous Pick**: Something unexpected that still works

4. **Non-Wine Options**: Beer, sake, or non-alcoholic pairing

5. **Serving Tips**:
   - Ideal temperature
   - Decanting needs
   - Glass type
   - When to open before the meal

6. **Pairing Principles**: The general rules that apply (so I can learn to pair on my own)

7. **What to Avoid**: Combinations that would clash and why
