CHIP & Wine Pairings? Nov 6 Written By Milly Lee Spice up wine night with friends and do a chip and wine tasting! POTATO CHIPS - CHAMPAGNE Salty & Sparkling From Cape Cod to Lays the potato chip is perfect with champagne! Anything sparkling works really well with food items that are on the saltier or fattier side. The bubbles tend to cut through the salt and fat in the chips which cleanse our palettes and not feel so greasy. BBQ CHIPS - PINOT NOIR Smokey & Earthy Pinot Noir and BBQ chips are the perfect earthy and smokey balance you need during your wine nights. They balance each other out as pinot is typically earthier and balances the tangy and sweeter side of the bbq chip. SALT & VINEGAR - PINOT GRIGIO APPLE & VINEGAR A apple forward Pinot Grigio is a great choice for a salt and vinegar chip. The apple notes balances the strong vinegar flavors in the chip which makes the chip’s flavors feel lighter and tangier! SOUR CREAM & ONION - CHARDONNAY Crunch & Zing A chardonnay is the perfect pairing with a zingy chip like sour cream and onion. Chardonnay tends to be fruit forward and acidic which cuts through the heavy creamy flavors of the chip. Making it the perfectly contrast to the saltiness of the chip with the acidity of the wine!
