The Ultimate Wine Pairing Guide for Holiday Desserts

The holidays are a time for indulgence, and what better way to elevate your dessert table than with the perfect wine pairing? Here are our top picks for pairing wines with classic holiday treats:

Bûche Noir-Vanille, Apple Crumble, or Tart & Sparklings

Recommended Wines:

  • Prosecco Franzi & Cratzi
  • Heritage Champagne
  • Louis de Sacy Brut Grand Cru Champagne

 

A sparkling white wine such as Prosecco or Champagne pairs beautifully with the rich flavors of dark chocolate, vanilla, and the subtle sweetness of apple crumble. The effervescence cleanses the palate while enhancing the dessert’s complexity. This pairing is a standout choice for the holidays.

Bûche Rocher Noisette, Chocolate Napoleon & Merlot or Grenache

Recommended Wines:
• Chateau Capet Duverger
• Maris Le Zulu (Sulfite-Free)

The rich, nutty flavors of a Bûche Rocher Noisette and the bittersweet complexity of a Chocolate Napoleon shine when paired with a soft red wine like Merlot or Grenache. The Maris Le Zulu Grenache is a fantastic sulfite-free option, ensuring a natural and clean-tasting experience that pairs beautifully with chocolate desserts.

Bûche Blanc Framboise, Mixed Berry Tart & Rosé or Demi-Sec Wines

Recommended Wines:
• Rose Champagne Heritage
• Sparkling Rosé Demi-Sec JP Chenet
• Dry Rosé Wine Villa Riviera
• Sweet Rosé Wine Moscatino

The fruity, tangy sweetness of a Bûche Blanc Framboise or a Mixed Berry Tart calls for high-acid wines with notes of red and dark fruits. Rosé Champagnes, Demi-Sec sparkling wines, and sweet or dry rosés bring out the desserts’ richness without overwhelming their delicate flavors.

Please note that these wines are only available in Brickell, South Beach, and Pinecrest locations. Unfortunately, they are not available at the Bird Road location.

From sparkling wines to full-bodied reds, the right wine pairing can transform your holiday desserts into an unforgettable experience. Try these pairings at your next gathering and enjoy the magic of perfectly matched flavors.

Cheers to a delicious and festive Holiday Season!
