Easy Holiday Appetizers to Pair with Cakebread Cellars Wine

The holidays may look a little different this year but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy delicious food to pair with some even better wine!

 

Cakebread Cellars wine is always a staple in my home, especially around the holidays, so this year I decided to make two fun recipes to pair with two of my favorite wines. Cakebread Cellars 2018 Chardonnay pairs perfectly with these simple zucchini and goat cheese tarts, then the 2017 Merlot is paired with a childhood favorite, sausage stuffing balls.

I hope you enjoy these recipes and make sure to share your creations with me on Instagram!

Cakebread Cellars 2018 Chardonnay is not your grandmother’s Chardonnay. This white wine is light with well-balanced acidity and notes of apple which is why it is better served cold and why we recommend to get a cellar cooling installation. These cold storage installers can help you choose the best one. Contact Bespoke Cold Rooms to get an idea. Visit sites like https://cellarcooler.uk/ to learn more.

Merlot has always been one of my favorite red wines because of its bold flavorful profile without being overly tannic. Cakebreads Napa Valley Merlot is medium-bodied with silky tannins and nice notes of blackberries and plum! I decided to pair this with a childhood favorite of mine, stuffing sausage balls.
