Celebrate Halloween with Tasty Pairings of Candy + Simi Winery’s Varietals! #ChefKolinRecommends

With Halloween just around the corner, do you know what to drink with the candy that you are eating — err handing out to the kids?
No???? Thought not! Thankfully LA-Story.com has some answers courtesy of SIMI Winery Executive Chef Kolin Vazzoler who has suggested wine pairings for your favorite Halloween treats!

Whether you prefer chocolate or chewy, we include below a few of Chef Kolin’s pairing recommendations that will surely satisfy your sweet tooth this holiday – especially when paired with SIMI wines!

· Caramel Apples – Paired with SIMI Sonoma County Chardonnay

A fan of this classic Halloween favorite, Chef Kolin notes “the rich, vanilla notes of the Chardonnay lend well to the buttery sweetness of the caramel apple”

· Starbursts – Paired with SIMI Sonoma County Sauvignon Blanc

Chef Kolin suggests pairing these flavorful chewies with the SIMI Sauvignon Blanc as “the bright, crisp citrus notes of the Sauvignon Blanc offset the chewy, tart sweetness of the Starbursts”

· Red Twizzlers – Paired with SIMI Sonoma County Pinot Noir

Finding no problem in pairing red wine with red candy, Chef Kolin notes that “the red raspberry and cherry notes of the Pinot Noir complement the taste of the red candy”

· Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups – Paired with SIMI Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

For an all-around win, Chef Kolin suggests pairing these chocolatey bites with Cabernet Sauvignon as “the oak and dark fruit balances the peanut butter chocolate richness”

Thank you to Chef Kolin for providing this very important information. I do raid the stuff I am giving out and if we get some because someone decided to go out (hint hint! Not me, of course) what we drink with what we “borrow”
