🧀🍷 The perfect charcuterie board is all about balance.

Whether you’re hosting a summer wine tasting, enjoying a sunset with friends, or simply opening a bottle at home, a well-prepared board can make the experience even more special.

Here are 5 tips to keep in mind:

✨ 1. Start with variety: Mix soft, semi-soft, and hard cheeses.

🥩 2. Add your charcuterie: Choose 2–3 cured meats with different textures and flavors.

🍓 3. Balance the flavors: Think sweet, savory, briny, and crunchy.

🥖 4. Don’t forget the crackers: Include a variety of textures, plus a neutral option that lets the wine and cheese shine.

🌸 5. Choose the right wine: For summer, a light-colored rosé is an easy and versatile choice. Its refreshing acidity and bright fruit flavors pair beautifully with many cheeses, fresh fruits, and veggies.

And if you’re ready to take your next wine gathering from “Let’s open a bottle” to “Let’s create an experience”…I’ve got you covered. 🥂

This is what summer actually looks like. Just close your eyes and join me

French Riviera. Rosé. The light that only exists at that hour.

Some places don't need a filter and this is one of them.

If this is your summer, or if it's still on your wish list, save this. Share it with the person who needs to see it. And follow along because we are heading there soon and I am bringing the wine recommendations.

If you need provisioning while in the Med, just DM me. Ive got you!

Cheers to American craftsmanship this Independence Day. 🇺🇸

Clif Family Winery Clif Family Winery & Farm in Napa Valley has built their entire program around regenerative and organic farming, treating the health of their soil as seriously as the wine itself.

We have had the privilege of partnering with Clif Family directly, featuring their wines at FLIBS and again at the Newport Beach International Boat Show during an event hosted by Women’s Events & Podcast

Both times, the response from guests was the same: genuine excitement at how exceptional sustainably farmed wine can be.

Their Reyna Noriega REYNA NORIEGA 🇨🇺🇧🇸 collaboration is a beautiful example of winemaking meeting artistry and purpose, a story worth sharing with your guests at the table.

This is what we look for in every producer partnership: craftsmanship, sustainability, and a story behind the bottle worth telling.

Looking to add producers like this to your cellar?

Send us a message, we would love to help you provision with intention.

Looking for some delicious and perfect 4th of July bites?.

created these Watermelon Feta Star Stackers and honestly, I thought what a perfect appetizer for the 4th.

My pairing pick? A chilled Provence Rosé. Bone dry, delicately fruity, with just enough structure to stand up to the feta and let the watermelon shine.

Or a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. If you want an even sharper, zippier pairing, the bright citrus and tropical fruit notes cut through the savory feta beautifully

If you need a show-stopper for your next summer gathering, this is it. Swipe for details and save this one for the season.

Make sure to follow for more wine and food pairing tips.

🍣 International Sushi Day Feature

Shoutout to the incredibly talented Chef Ruthie for creating beautiful sushi experiences that remind us why simplicity, precision, and balance matter so much in food. 👏

One of the biggest myths in wine is that sushi only pairs with sake.

While sake is a fantastic match thanks to its silky texture, umami character, and food-friendly nature, many wines can create equally exciting pairings when chosen thoughtfully. According to pairing principles taught by wine education organizations such as WSET, the key is selecting wines with freshness, moderate alcohol, and minimal tannin so they don’t overpower delicate seafood flavors.

🍶 Sake Recommendation

Junmai Ginjo Sake

Elegant, aromatic, and balanced with notes of melon, pear, rice, and subtle umami. Its smooth texture and low tannin profile make it one of the most versatile companions for sushi and sashimi.

🥂 White Wine Recommendation

Albariño (Rías Baixas, Spain)

Bright acidity, citrus, stone fruit, and a subtle saline character make Albariño one of the most reliable wine pairings for sushi. It complements fresh seafood without overwhelming it.

🌸 Rosé Recommendation

Dry Provence Rosé

Light-bodied, crisp, and refreshing with delicate strawberry and citrus notes. A dry rosé works beautifully with salmon, tuna rolls, and sushi featuring richer textures.

🍷 Light Red Recommendation

Pinot Noir

Surprised? A lightly chilled Pinot Noir with soft tannins and bright acidity can be an excellent match for tuna, salmon, and soy-based preparations. The key is choosing an elegant, lighter style rather than a powerful red.

Remember:

When pairing sushi, think freshness, acidity, balance, and elegance. The goal is to elevate the fish.....not overpower it.

What’s your favorite sushi pairing: 🍶 Sake, 🥂 White Wine, 🌸 Rosé, or 🍷 Pinot Noir?
