May's Pour Pairings box is based off of the king of the red grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon.
Although this wine is typically known for its pairings with meats like steak, pork belly, and lamb - it also goes great with savory mushroom dishes. The Pour Pairing box this month does not have any meats, but does contain nuts and dairy.
Wine Recommendation:
- I'd say the items included this month will go very well with a Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon (ask me how I know lol).
- When shopping, look (or ask the wine shop employee) for something fruit forward, medium bodied with smooth tannins. Be sure to aerate or let the wine breathe after opening for a bit before drinking so you can bring it to its full potential.
