Super Bowl Food + Wine Pairings

Yeah yeah, we know — beer is generally the libation that wins this category.  But not this year, BEER.  We’re coming for ya!  And we’re covering some of the world’s most versatile grapes.  From nachos, to guacamole, chili, pizza, popcorn and buffalo chicken wings — I’ve got a grape pairing for everything on your Super Bowl board this weekend.  In case you missed my live segment with Jason Matheson on his very own, The Jason Show, on Fox 9 this past Thursday — here’s the clip.
