Science World and La Chaîne des Rôtisseurs have selected wineries from BC’s Golden Mile Bench for its inaugural food and wine event, Pairings—a gourmet evening with a dash of science, on June 13.

This event explores the fascinating science behind food and wine pairings and supports Science World’s Super Science Club. Event goers will sip on a selection of fine wines from Oliver’s Golden Mile Bench, the wine capital of Canada, while savouring delectable gourmet bites prepared by some of BC’s most renowned chefs and restaurants from the Okanagan Valley and Vancouver.

Come learn the science behind the food and wine pairings, which is created using chemistry principles such as mixing acids and fats, sugars and spices, and then using alcohols and tannins to compete with the intensity of the food.
