“I eat whatever I want. I like bread and cheese and wine, and that makes my life fun and enjoyable.” - Gwyneth Paltrow
Now that the season is slowly changing, and the air’s getting a bit more chilly … I’m switching up the wines we drink at home.
During the warmer months, I love a nice glass of champagne, rosé or crisp chardonnay. Yet, during the fall and winter I lean towards nice full bodied reds.
Today, I’m sharing a few food and wine pairings for the new season. There are some perfect red wines for the cooler months that are ahead of us, and guess what … you don’t have to give up that delicious rosé either . Also, I’m featuring a few of my favorite types of wines to stock your wine cabinet or fridge with as well.

It is officially salad season you guys! Now that the warmer months are here, I typically like to eat a little bit lighter. Since I'm eating a lot more salads lately, I've been enjoying pairing wines with my light and healthy meals. I have been sipping on Rose/Blush wines and Sauvignon Blanc lately! The wines I'm featuring today I've had at some of my favorite restaurants, and fell in love with them. Whenever we find a new wine at a restaurant that is amazing, G will search for them at Total Wine to see if they are in stock. We have been doing this for years, and really like and pick up a few bottles of our faves.
Today I'm pairing two of my easy at home salads with some amazing wines from Total Wine.
