New Wine + Appetizer Ideas for Fall Entertaining!

This past week on The Jason Show, I teamed up with my dear friend and restaurateur extraordinaire, Chef Asher Miller, of Minneapolis hot spot,  BookClub Restaurant, to show off some of our best kept fall wine + appetizer ideas for the season. 

Try on a few of our Fall + Wine Pairing Ideas for yourself!

Here are the foods we featured and the wines I paired to them:

Creamed late summer corn with Parsley Gremolata 

Creamy corn dishes that contain a great deal of dairy need acid driven whites, with medium texture to pair to both sides of dishes like these.  Acid to cut through the heaviness of the dairy, and a bit of texture to still snuggle in to the likeness of the corn.  

Leth Röter Veltliner ~ Wagram, Austria 

Weingut Mantlerhof Grüner Veltliner ~ Kremstal, Austria

De Wetshof ‘Limestone Hill’ Chardonnay ~ Western Cape, South Africa — buy it, HERE!
