Andrew Lampasone, owner of Wine Watch boutique and creator of “What I Drank Yesterday” YouTube series, explains what to pair with some of your favorite holiday dishes.
MORE TIPS:
- Foods that are hard to pair with wine: “Asparagus, artichokes and brussel sprouts will make almost any wine hard to pair,” Lampasone says. He recommends avoiding using them in wine-pairing dishes.
- “If it’s a large group of people, keep it very vanilla-chocolate-strawberry,” he says, suggesting a simple wine like merlot. “Don’t go too eclectic on them.”
- As a general rule when pairing desserts with wine, the food should not be sweeter than the wine.
