Easter Brunch and Dinner Wine Pairings

I was sent Mirassou® Wine to try and share with my family. All opinions are my own. 

Easter Wine PairingsIt’s time for the big southern brunches and dinners. Families coming together to eat good and share a holiday together. Southerns do it big too, go big or go home. We like big meals filled with a glazed ham and a turkey. My favorite part of Easter is brunch though. I could have breakfast for dinner any night of the week. I thought I’d share some wine pairings to go with some of my favorite Easter brunch and dinners.

Easter Brunch Wine Pairings

Brunch is a good time for sparkling wines but I like the light fruity blends like a Riesling or a Mascato.

Easter Dinner Wine Pairings

Spiral Cut Honey Glazed Ham – Riesling (White) or Pinot Nior (Red).

Lamb Chops – Mirassou® California Cabernet Sauvignon

Pork Chops or Roast – Merlot

Roasted Chicken – White meat for white wine – Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay. Dark Meat goes well with Pinot Nior.

Recipe-CherryBreadPuddingYou can’t forget dessert! I’d love to try this Cherry Bread Pudding. But I’m also quite fond of my Bird Nest Cookies, a delicious coconut macaroon. 

Plus, I’m sure that there will be plenty of candy and chocolate from the kids! Mascato is my dessert wine of choice. 

I think my Easter basket will be the talk of the holiday though. Way cooler than the kids!

    Firebird
    really liked it
    Firebird is a solid dark romantasy read. You have dragon-shifter political leaders of Rome. A witch who I don’t think we have seen the full extent of her power yet. There were so many little side stories told that I believe our FMC will ...
    Sunrise on the Reaping
    it was amazing
    Oh Haymich, my heart is shattered for you. This was the perfect bridge between The Ballard of Songbirds and Snakes and Catching Fire. Linking the wickedness of The Hunger Games with the victors who came together to end them. If Suzanne C...

    liked it
    This was a sweet romance read. I really enjoyed the audiobook narrators (Joshua Manning and Stina Nielsen). I don’t usually read books that fall into the religious category, but I’m a sucker for Scots and Irishman so that is why I wanted...
    My Demon Hunter
    really liked it
    I am thoroughly enjoying the Hell Bent series. My Demon Hunter was even better than My Funny Demon Valentine. I’m a sucker for demonology stories, and these are filled with all kinds of interesting characters. This one features a plus-si...
