Data-driven wine advice from SommelierX

Spanish omelette deserves more than a random bottle. With potato and egg as its leading flavours, this dish calls for a wine that follows its intensity — neither too light nor overwhelming. Our Wine DNA model breaks the dish down into flavour axes and finds the wines whose profile sits closest. That way you know not only which wine fits, but why. Below you will find the flavour profile, the recommended wines with grape and region, and tips to get the most out of the combination.
