Food & Wine Pairing Recipes

  • Astringent or bitter foods go well with full-flavoured wines, such as Cabernet Sauvignon
  • Crisp wines, such as Pinot Grigio, go well with salty foods
  • Fatty cuts of meat work well with bitter wines, as they will tone down the bitterness
  • Highly acidic foods pair well with acidic wines
  • Serve light-bodied wines with light food and full-bodied wines with heavier foods
  • Spicy foods pair well with sweeter wines
  • Sweet foods need a dry wine to offset the sweetness

FEATURING ROSÉ

If Dad is a fan of BBQ there is no better time than Father’s Day to throw him a backyard BBQ celebration. While no good BBQ is complete without an ice cold beer, this year why not try a nice chilled rosé? Yes that’s right, rosés and BBQ pair together fabulously. A rosé has just what it takes to stand up to the smokiness of a BBQ while providing superb refreshment on a hot sunny day.

The Twisted Mist and Island Mist flavours are sweeter with less alcohol than regular wine. These are great poured over lots of ice all on their own or with dessert.

Below are some delicious ideas to thank Dad on his special day.
