3. Discover the Perfect Match: Food and Wine at B&Bs
At B&Bs throughout the country, one of the most savored experiences is pairing the right food and wine together. From robust reds and decadent whites to the classic bacon and eggs brunch, finding the right menu to complement a great wine can make for a truly memorable adventure. Here are a few tips on discovering the perfect match for your next B&B visit.
- Start with the basics. Before you choose a show-stopping wine, think about the basics: What type of cuisine you’ll be eating, whether there are any regional specialties, and if there’s anything you don’t particularly like or can’t have due to dietary reasons. This can help narrow down the field a bit since some wines are better paired with certain foods.
- Find the perfect pairing. Start looking at ingredients, textures, and flavors of the food to determine the right wine to go with it. If there are a lot of bold flavors, such as garlic and onions, opt for a wine with a richer flavor, such as a bold Chardonnay or a Zinfandel. Light and airy dishes, such as salads and couscous, can be paired with a fruitier wine, like a Pinot Grigio or Riesling.
- Know your guests. Are you serving wine to a crowd, or just a few? It’s important to consider this when selecting the right wine. If you’re pleasing a crowd, it may be best to opt for a light white or rose, while those serving a smaller group may be able to go with a bolder red.
- Mix it up. Don’t be afraid to try different pairings. Sometimes, the most unexpected combinations can be the most delicious. Alternating between different wines throughout the meal can also make the experience even more enjoyable.
- Get creative. If your B&B is offering something out of the ordinary, like a unique dish, season it with various spices and herbs, and experiment with a few different wines to find the perfect pairing.
When it comes to food and wine pairings at a B&B, the possibilities are practically endless. With a little experimentation and knowledge, you can create a unique and memorable experience for you and your guests. So explore, experiment, and enjoy the perfect match at your next B&B stay.
