Learn What Foods to Pair With Festival Wines

Check out these food and wine pairings for the Arts and Wine Festival.

While the wine may be the star of the show at the Arts and Wine Festival, there's also plenty of delicious food to sample. Embrace all the flavors of the festival with these food and wine pairings:

  • Firehouse Chilli: Big flavors require big wines. Fight fire with fire by pairing spicy chili with bold cabs like Domaine Laurier Cabernet Sauvignon, Motos Liberty Cabernet Sauvignon or Napa Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon.
  • Hawaiian BBQ: Try a fruity, crisp white like Rutherford Vintners Sauvignon Blanc to complement to island flavors.
  • Asian Short Ribs: Juicy meats plays nicely with the deep flavors of Rutherford Vintners Pinot Noir or Motos Liberty Pinot Noir.
  • BBQ Pork on a Stick: Grab a glass of Napa Landing Merlot or Domaine Laurier Merlot to sip alongside grilled pork.
  • Eggrolls: Let Ventana Syrah balance out the strong Asian spices.
  • Funnel Cake: Ventana Pinot Gris's crisp, sweet notes pair perfectly with a crisp, sweet funnel cake.
  • Kettle Corn and Sweet Grilled Corn: Buttery whites go well with sweet corn kernels. Give Pacific Oasis Chardonnay or Rutherford Vintners Chardonnay a try.
