Local Pairings for Grilling Surf & Turf
Local Pairings To Serve with Grilled Foods
Zanatta Winery Damasco
Damasco is my go to wine when the menu consists of BBQ. This is the wine you start the dinner off with. Damasco is a blend of 4 different grapes, Auxerrois, Ortega, Madelyne Sylvaner and Muscat. It is fresh with melon, peach and floral notes. Serve it chilled and you have a perfect sipper while tending the BBQ. Pairs great with oysters, mussels, and chicken satay.$20
Blue Grouse Winery Quill Q Red
This delicious blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Marechal Foch is perfect for any big protein cooked on the BBQ but not so big that you couldn’t enjoy with some fabulous seafood. $26.99
Rocky Creek Winery On The Mark – Tempranillo Blend
This wine made by the winemaker’s namesake and his love to BBQ. Tasting tobacco notes with black pepper. Finishes with darker fruits such as plum and smoky notes that match well with BBQ. BBQ Oysters and Grilled Rib Eye (Chilled for the Oysters and Room Temperature for the steak) $25/bottle
Emandare Vineyard 2020 Rosé
A Juicy fruit bomb certain to tame any master of the grill. Our Rosé is not your typical Rosé, anything fresh off the grill on a hot sunny afternoon will work wonderfully with this chuggably delicious wine. $25.00
Ampersand Distilling Company Per Se Vodka
Winner of World’s Best Varietal Vodka at the 2020 World Vodka Awards. Clean vodka with creamy mouthfeel, body, and slight sweetness on the palate. Per Se fits right in at the BBQ, whether you’re mixing up a Caesar or spiking some refreshing lemonade. $40
