Like millions of Americans, Jacob's Creek, the leading Australian wine company, plans on celebrating one of the most significant American sporting events with wine while watching the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Arizona Cardinals in football's biggest game of the year. Whether feasting on pizza, nachos, or burgers while gathered around the TV, Jacob's Creek offers the ideal food and wine pairings for an unforgettable viewing experience.
Jacob's Creek suggests the following pairings that are sure to be a winning touchdown with guests: Pizza : Always a crowd favorite, each person's favorite pizza has a varietal that will go perfectly with their choice. For those looking to enjoy cheese pizza, they will find that the Chardonnay perfectly complements this choice. If they are interested in adding some vegetables to their diet, a veggie pizza goes well with Pinot Noir. Chips, Salsa & Quesadillas : If fans are looking to cool down from the spicy salsa or a referee's call they did not agree with, they will find that a bottle of Merlot offers a great cooling effect. Also, Chardonnay is a great option for anything that is corn-based such as tortilla chips or quesadillas. Sandwiches and Burgers : Whether it's a submarine sandwich or an angus beef burger, a big sandwich goes well with a big wine. Jacob's Creek recommends a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon for meat or perhaps Pinot Noir with sandwiches with a spicy mustard dressing. Buffalo Wings: To off-set the spicy flavors of buffalo wings, it is best to opt for the off-dry Riesling. The white wine will not only tame the heat, but it will off-set the bright red color of the sauce all over fingers. Veggies & Dip: When enjoying the healthier alternatives to game day munchies, keep in mind that crunchy treats go best with a crisp white wine such as Chardonnay. If red wine is your color of choice for the day, opt for a lighter and more fruity option such as Pinot Noir. Whatever individuals opt for on game day, one thing is certain: With the Jacob's Creek Reserve collection, priced at $12.99, the options are guaranteed at a fantastic value and incredible taste.
