Holiday Pie & Wine Pairing

Celebrate the season with a sweet adventure! Each slice of handcrafted holiday pie is paired with the perfect English Newsom Cellars wine, from bright Dry Riesling with buttermilk pie to bold Cabernet with chocolate pie. 

We’re proud to partner with our friends at Sugarbakers Cafe and Bakery to bring you these homemade holiday pies, a true taste of Lubbock tradition. Together, we’re keeping it local, delicious, and full of holiday cheer.

Menu:

~ Buttermilk Pie & Dry Riesling ~

The silky custard of buttermilk pie meets the crisp refreshment of Dry Riesling. Bright citrus and green apple flavors cut through the richness, creating a pairing that feels clean, elegant, and balanced.

~ Pumpkin Pie & Mourvèdre ~

Pumpkin’s warm spices and earthy sweetness find an unexpected partner in Mourvèdre. The wine’s subtle spice and dark fruit highlight the cinnamon and nutmeg, while its depth adds a savory counterpoint to the pie’s custard-like texture.

~ Chocolate Pie & Cabernet Sauvignon ~

Silky chocolate pie pairs boldly with Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine’s dark fruit, structured tannins, and hint of spice cut through the pie’s decadence, while the cocoa notes in both amplify each other, a dramatic and satisfying finale.

~ Pecan Pie & Sweet Red Wine ~

Pecan pie’s nutty, caramelized richness is perfectly matched by a Sweet Red. Its ripe berry fruit softens the pie’s intensity while its sweetness amplifies the toasted pecan and brown sugar notes, a cozy, indulgent pairing.
