The Perfect Glass: Pairing Made Easy
Whether you’re planning a romantic dinner, a big family gathering, or a cosy night in, Master of Wine Philippa Carr shares pairing suggestions to help you create a meal to remember. With SPAR own label wines, there’s something for every budget and every occasion and all our ranges are vegan friendly.
- Country of origin
Match the flavours of a region for instant harmony. Think pizza with Pinot Grigio or Mediterranean vegetables with a refreshing Southern French rosé. A match made in heaven. - Body and richness
Pair the weight of your dish with the weight of your wine. A hearty casserole loves a Bold Red, while delicate sushi sings with a light, refreshing white. - Flavours
High acidity foods pair beautifully with wines that have a similar zing. Try SPAR’s Tasteheads Sauvignon Blanc with salt and vinegar crisps for a surprisingly romantic little snack moment. - Tannin
If bold reds feel a bit much on their own, pair them with protein, meat, cheese or a creamy sauce. The tannins soften, and the magic happens. - And remember...have what you fancy
There are no rules in love or wine. If Sauvignon Blanc is your soulmate, enjoy it proudly. Food and wine are meant to be savoured.
Sometimes home is the only place you want to celebrate. It might be fun and laughter with the whole family round the dinner table, or as simple as a relaxed evening for two with some lit candles. Set the table with your favourite dishes and a chilled bottle of SPAR’s own label wine.
Whether you’re cooking from scratch, picking up convenient ready meals or stocking up on sweet treats, your local SPAR has everything you need for your special dinner. A smooth red like our new Tasteheads Malbec is a gorgeous choice, vibrant, silky, and packed with ripe fruit flavours.
Next time you pop into your local store check out the wine ranges available exclusively at SPAR, including the Legends, UpTempo and Tasteheads.The bold and colourful labels should make them easy to spot and naming the new wines by style makes finding your favourites even simpler.
SPAR’s hand cooked crisps pair beautifully with a dry rosé, or celebrate with a little sparkle and pick up SPAR’s award-winning prosecco. Creating a sharing platter? Grab some antipasti and anything else that catches your eye. The beauty of a platter is that anything goes.
