It’s time to get out and indulge in the best part of winter turning into spring – patio brunching. Make yourself a mimosa and sit down to learn about all the ways you become a star brunch host!
If you’re like us, you know that the most important part of any brunch is the bottle of wine that comes with it. The bottle you choose can make or break any meal, so it’s imperative to pop the bottle that will complement your breakfast. It’s not only mimosas, bloody mary’s, and bubbly that pair great with brunch food (even though we love all of it).
Start your Saturday or Sunday off with light, crisp wines that are perfect for spring. Now sit back, pop that bread in the toaster, and mix your best Prosecco with orange juice as we present to you the best brunch wines for beginners and connoisseurs alike:
Sparkling – Prosecco
You may think of Prosecco mixed with orange juice when it comes to brunch – but there are so many other ways to drink bubbly with brunch. Next time, try drinking sparkling wine on its own and you will see how the light flavors along with its airy bubbles make this wine the perfect choice for sipping alongside Eggs Benedict or a buttery croissant.
Rosé
The light, floral aromas of Rose will likely remind anyone of a warm day in May. Rosé offers one of the most perfect approaches to breakfast drinking without fear of being tired the rest of the day. Make sure you have this handy next time you host a brunch — and serve it alongside some small brunch essentials, like cheeses and fruits.
White – Riesling
Nothing says good morning like a thick-cut slice of french toast drizzled with syrup paired with a citrusy aromatic riesling. Are you in heaven yet? Riesling pairs well with the sweetness of the syrup and will refresh your palate so you’ll taste every delectable bite.
Red – Pinot Noir
You may not picture a red Pinot as the ideal light breakfast brunch wine but this staple wine can elevate any meal. Pinot Noir tends to be lighter and pairs well with light brunch fares like bagels and toast.
Dessert Wine – Moscato
No matter which brand of Moscato you choose, you will be sure to dazzle your brunch guests if you pair it with blueberry pancakes. Moscato wine is a sweet, fizzy white or Rosé wine that will compliment each bite.
