Wine and Dine Favs

Wednesday evenings are the best! Why you may ask? Simple, it’s Food Pairing Wine and Dine night, the world’s largest wine tasting and dining experience. Learn new recipes, wine to pair with it, tips and tricks to entertain, wines to choose from for different occasions, and so much more. All of the wines presented are exclusive from Napa and Sonoma Valley through a private wine club – I am going to highlight a few of my favs that include the ones that my husband and I participated in. Enjoy!!! I will be adding new favs to the top so bookmark and frequently often and check out my newest fav.

The Chill or Not to Chill Debate: The Discoveries Tempranillo

I love these people. Our beloved Tanya is our hostess. Sheila is preparing deviled eggs with bacon appetizer, I am preparing the main dish, Chicken Rolls with Pork Stuffing, and Julie is making an awesome unique chocolate dessert. (Her cat made a special appearance!!! LOL). We pair every dish with a fine wine from our wine of the month club.

The deviled eggs can be difficult to pair but Peter gives us his expert recommendations and makes it easy. Have questions about a wine with a spicy chocolate dessert, again Peter has recommendations for any food pairing Wine and Dine. Below is the Feb 9, 2022 show in which Peter again hits tasting information out of the park by talking about the Discoveries Tempranillo wine, where the grapes come from and so if you want more check that Wine and Dine show out below.

Food and Wine Pairing: The Irish Show

Picture of our exclusive St Patrick's Day wine from the pristine valleys of Napa and Sonoma along with a tradition Irish Apple Cake

My husband is proudly 50% Irish and so we had to present an Irish dish for this special Wine and Dine. If you are Irish and/or love the Irish this one is for you. So much fun with our host, Sheila, introducing each cook and including interesting facts about St. Patrick. Two appetizers, Stacy with Potato Skin Bites and Darlena with Irish Pub Nachos. Preparing the main dish is Char, Dublin Coddle and I am preparing the dessert in a cast-iron skillet, Irish Apple Cake. We pair every dish with a fine wine from our wine of the month club.

Food and Wine Pairing: Valentine’s vs Super Bowl!!!!

This fantastic show was hosted by Jenn. She introduced Shane as he prepares a supper bowl appetizer of Bangel Bagel Bites (guess what team he is rooting for?). My husband and I prepared meatloaf, our favorite comfort food. Peter surprised us with an amazing Valentine’s meal of Chocolate Steak!!!! Linda prepared an awesome lava cake, you have to check this dessert out. We pair every dish with a fine wine from our wine of the month club.

Food and Wine Pairing: Secret Ingredient – Pumpkin

This show is centered around the very thing that my taste buds long for every fall, pumpkin. Our host, Char shows us how to make an easy appetizer that is cheese and crackers but looks like a slice of pumpkin pie! She also shows us how to present a bottle of wine as a gift, this is a must with the holidays coming upon us. A bonus of a cheese ball that looks like a pumpkin, so adorable and a must for those who will be entertaining this holiday or need to bring an appetizer to a party. Jenn is presenting two recipes, potpie and a pumpkin spice white wine spritzer!!!! Peter, who is our wine expert and a regular on our Wine and Dine Show gives us pointers. I am preparing my family’s favorite pumpkin recipe, it’s kinda like pumpkin pie on steroids!!!

Our always delightful Jacqualyn Bellavia is our host for the evening with Shelia Matchett directing our theme of the night.

Featured is a Pretzel Pizza, Mac & Cheese, Grilled P B & J, Strawberry Shortcake, & Almond Butter Toast With Berries & Chocolate, and all of course with a twist and paired with wine!!!! Curious? You should be!!!

Food and Wine Pairing: Fair Food and Festivities

This Wine and Dine Show is all about Fair Foods and the festive atmosphere that the fair brings. Oh, the memories. We all have a favorite food from the fair or the carnival. We have an appetizer by Diane. Her favorite is the caramel apple so she made a caramel apple appetizer that is just the right combination with the More Than Muse Sauvignon Blanc. Then Julie gave us a double treat. Originally from Oklahoma, her first choice is an Indian Taco. Living in Texas now her second choice was a homemade corndog, yes, homemade corndog. If one of your favorites is a corndog you really must see how this is done. Finally, for dessert, we have a funnel cake that is paired with a Freedom Chardonnay. These wine pairings are just a taste of the discoveries we share in this fine wine of the month club.
