The pairing of yakitori and wine became popular a few years ago and is now becoming a standard.
Unlike mass izakaya, they are often found in yakitori restaurants with a relaxed atmosphere and high date demand.
In this issue, we will introduce the reasons why pairing yakitori and wine is recommended, and the best combinations that go well together.

<Yakitori and wine pair well together.

It is a popular accompaniment to beer at a reasonable price. Wouldn't it make sense if you said, "If a wine goes well with meat dishes, it will go well with yakitori as well"?
Each yakitori is small in size and has a different texture and flavor depending on the part and seasoning.
Therefore, it is rather ideal for pairing, such as one skewer with one glass of wine.

<Recommended combinations

White for light flavors, red for fatty and strong flavors

This is the simplest and most straightforward pairing. It is often said that red wine goes well with red meat and white wine goes well with white meat.
For example, white wine is recommended for light meats such as white meat and meatballs. On the other hand, red wine is recommended for well-seasoned yakitori with sauce and fatty parts.

<Recommended for dates.
