but pairs are just... suggestions. i study the same stuff you do, but i also keep my mind opened to what the other members are inputting into this topic, and that is, some do bring wine that isn't on the menu because it could be more so symbolic, than a "perfect pairing". or maybe they are in fact, cheap. or maybe they particularly enjoy that wine a lot that even if its not a "right" pairing to their dinner, they enjoy it.
as a chef, you wouldn't come out to a table and bitch out your guests because their ordered wine b, instead of choosing your recommended wine a pairing.
don't take it too personal bro
