Throw a Food and Wine Pairing Party
Looking for an idea for an upcoming shower, engagement party, or rehearsal dinner? How about a food and wine pairing party? This type of party pairs multiple courses of food with a complementary wine. Best thrown for smaller, more intimate gatherings, a pairing party allows guests to try a little bit of everything and discuss how they enjoy the flavors of the food and wine together.
Throwing a food and wine pairing party may seem intimidating, so if you’re just starting to experiment with this idea and you’re not sure what goes with what, you can check out websites like Rosemount Estate’s that gives party tips, recipes and suggestions by Gordon Ramsay for what wine would go well with what dish.
Beginners can also simply match food and wines with similar tastes by serving a light, sparkling wine with a dessert, using food and wines from one area like Italian wines with Italian foods, or throwing a simple wine and cheese pairing party. Not up to throwing the party yourself? You can look for restaurants or country clubs that may offer this type of event in your area.
