Apple & Whipped Brie Crostini with Hot Honey Drizzle ~ Wine Pairing 2021 Viognier
This dish is a balanced bite of sweet and savory, creamy and crunchy. Viognier’s lush stone fruit flavors and floral aromas beautifully enhance the creamy richness of Brie and the crisp sweetness of apple.
Roasted Root Vegetables ~ Wine Pairing: 2021 Reserve Roussanne
The depth of this fuller bodied white varietal brings out the natural sugars of these carrots, parsnips, and beets. Roussanne’s warm, honeyed notes and balanced acidity make it an ideal match for the caramelized flavors of roasted root vegetables.
Roasted Herb Crusted Pork Tenderloin ~ Wine Pairing: 2023 Tempranillo
Rich and earthy, this Spanish varietal pairs excellently with the pork’s savory profile, balancing the acidity and tannins with the fattiness of the meat. Tempranillo has a natural peppery flavor, which goes well with the roasted herbs.
Twice Baked Potatoes ~ Wine Pairing: 2023 Merlot
Rich and velvety Merlot pairs beautifully with twice baked potatoes, enhancing the creamy texture and savory depth with its smooth tannins and ripe berry notes
