Informative Tea Towels

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Red Wine Selection Made Simple with the Charted Towel by Stuart Gardiner

— November 27, 2011 — Lifestyle
Never make a faux-pa again when it comes to pairing your wine and cuisine with this tea towel designed by London-based artist Stuart Gardiner, that also serves as a red wine-pairing chart. The 100% organic cotton dish towel features a red wine pairing chart printed on its surface, so that making the right choice to complement your beef stew is easier than pulling up that search on the internet.

The chart ranks the wine pairings as being either an excellent, good or best avoided option, and contains information on the acidity, body and sweetness of the charted wines. With this tea towel by Stuart Gardiner, you'll be able to impress all your guests with your connoisseur knowledge, and no one needs to know the secret behind your wisdom. Unless, of course, someone tips over a glass and you need the towel to wipe up the mess.
