Wine & Brunch
Move over, Mimosas. Discover exciting wine & brunch pairings for weekends done right.
Ham & Pinot Noir
You’ll go hog wild over this pair. Light bodied with a delicate sweetness and smoky, fruity notes, Pinot balances ham’s salty, slightly smoky taste without being overpowering.
Bagels & Sparkling Wine
With their tart acidity and light sweetness, bubbles kick bagels up a notch. And whether you load up on toppings or just add a schmear, they make flavors pop.
Bacon & Chardonnay
Surprise! Chard is bacon’s best friend. Crisp and light, the crowd favorite cuts through and balances the fatty, salty, smoky flavors of bacon. It even has a mild smokiness of its own!
Smoked Salmon & Sauvignon Blanc
You won’t have to fish for compliments when you pair Sauv Blanc with smoked salmon, the ultimate brunch bestie. Its crisp, refreshing acidity balances the salty, fishy flavors, and its delicacy won’t overpower them.
Waffles & Rosé
For waffles with syrup, pick Rosés. Their sweetness creates a delish balance and when you add citrus or raspberries to this pretty-in-pink wine, the acidity cuts through the waffle’s richness.
French Toast & Riesling
When it comes to pairing wine with French toast, sweet or sweeter is rule #1. A sweet and fruity Riesling is the way to go to bring out the best in the classic brunch staple draped in maple syrup or topped with jammy fruit.
Quiche & Beaujolais
The fruity lightness of Beaujolais—both Cru and Nouveau—is a lively contrast to the rich, creamy flavors of quiche. Especially ones with cheese, mushrooms or chicken. Bon appétit!
