Buffalo Chicken Wings: Albariño - This white wine from Spain “tames the flames” of spicy buffalo sauce and its high acidity helps cut through the greasiness of fried wings.
Barbecue Chicken Wings: Grenache - If you prefer your wings drenched in sweet, smoky barbecue sauce, this red wine with hints of berries is equally flavorful.
Pulled Pork: Zinfandel - This red wine is low in tannins, so it won’t overpower the complex flavors of slow-roasted pork.
Mac and Cheese: Chardonnay - Rich and cheesy mac pairs perfectly with Chardonnay.
Potato Skins: Sparkling Wine - Try a bubbly to balance all the flavors of this classic appetizer.
Pizza: Barbera - This red is considered an “everyday” wine in Northern Italy and it makes a great go-to pizza wine.
Beef Sliders: Syrah - The smoky tones in this rich, full-bodied red complement char-grilled beef nicely.
Hummus and Veggies: Pinot Grigio - A light and bright white like this highlights the citrus and sesame flavors of the dip.
Guacamole: Sauvignon Blanc - This white helps make the flavors of the dip pop and can cut through the oils of the avocado.
Chili: Lambrusco - The subtle sweetness of this semi-sparkling red balances out even the spiciest chili.
