Recreate the best of the tropics with this fruity pairing.

ALASKA DENALI WINERY PINEAPPLE PEAR PINOT GRIGIO PAIRED WITH STONED SALMON FARMS DOLEMAC

TANNINS | ALASKA DENALI WINERY’S PINEAPPLE PEAR PINOT GRIGIO 6.5% ABV

With the flavor of juicy sweet pears, succulent and ripe pineapple, and a bright flowery fragrance, this is the ideal wine for non-wine drinkers. Its low ABV also makes it a great choice for those who enjoy wine, but hate the inevitable splitting headache that comes from overindulging. Perhaps most exciting of all, this wine can only be purchased in Alaska – and like all Alaskans know – all the best things are only available in-state.

TERPENES | STONED SALMON FARMS DOLEMAC 24.02% THC, 1.74% TERPENES

DoleMac is a sativa-dominant hybrid best described as a powerhouse. The love child of Hawaiian Tang and Mac, DoleMac combines Mac’s happy and uplifting effects with the energetic cerebral head high of Hawaiian Tang. The bud is incredibly sticky and laden with pungent citrus scented trichomes that sparkle like the light of a billion stars on a clear Alaskan night. DoleMac’s smoke has a sweet, yet savory flavor that is almost reminiscent of a fruity Brie cheese. From your first toke, DoleMac will wrap you in a fullbody hug that starts on the tip of your nose, before wrapping around your head and down your body, leaving you with a satisfied smile.

With Valentine’s Day smack dab in the middle of February – and any hopes of a romantic, tropical vacation very unlikely this year – you can still recreate the best of the tropics with this fruity pairing. The firm acidity from the Alaska Denali Winery’s Pinot Grigio highlights the mouthwatering juiciness of pineapples and pears, giving this wine a truly refreshing finish. When mixed with the undeniable aroma of pineapple and citrus fruit produced by DoleMac, the only thing stopping you from hitting the beach will be the limits of your own imagination.
