Good luck all!
I am not currently a wine drinker, so I do not have a fave combination. hopefully this giveaway can change that!
Favorite food & wine combo is definitely the classic red wine and dark chocolate… yum!

Oh my gosh, what a fun giveaway Danica. I love wine and cheese and my friend (neighbor next door) and I will often try to have a Friday night wine and cheese tasting 🙂 I’d love to take part in this one live, online 🙂
I love all kinds of cheese and love finding new ones to try with different wines. I’ve only just discovered that I can enjoy a glass of red wine, I always thought I disliked it. Cabernet is the nicer of them, I mainly drink a Pinot Grigio at weekends.

I think wine is pretty delicious with just about anything, but I especially love red wine and a chocolate dessert.

I’m kind of a wino, so I like it with everything. But a cheese and cracker plate with a cold bottle of chardonnay is always good.
Reisling and girl friends! Oh and some veggie lasagna too 🙂
