Find the Perfect Dinner Pairing For Your Holidays With Keel Farms

‘Tis the season for delicious meals with your loved ones. While every family has their favorite dishes to make during the holidays, Keel and Curley Winery has the perfect selection of Florida wine to complement the food on your table.

Tangerine Tango

Our Tangerine Tango is bright and deliciously tangy. Perfect for families and friends, we think this is “Florida winter” in a wine! 

Begin your holiday gathering with a burst of flavor! For an appetizer that is wonderfully balanced by our Tangerine Tango, look no further than Grilled Shrimp with a Tropical Mango Salsa. Wonderfully delicious and colorful, this dish is a fun finger food.

We also recommend a Roast Duck with Orange and Ginger for a perfect pairing to bring out the brightness of the Tangerine Tango wine. This delicious meal is light, bright, and fun, making it a perfect main dish for a family or group of friends who like to celebrate the holidays a little unconventionally. 

Black Cherry Pinot Noir

Keel and Curley Winery Black Cherry Pinot Noir offers a delicious journey. The ripe cherry notes lead into a deep sweetness, making it a delightful holiday wine. 

The starting course dish that we love to pair with our Black Cherry Pinot Noir is a mouthwatering Prosciutto Crostini with Goat Cheese. When you buy wine in Florida for your celebrations and festivities, you may not often think about the appetizers and small plates, but it is important to remember the power of a simple dish!

For the main course, we also love Grilled Lamb Chops. A simple and flavorful dish that doesn’t require any complex seasoning, the richness of the meat pairs seamlessly with the Black Cherry Pinot Noir. The best part about this meal is that it is easy to make and serve.

Save some room for dessert because a Dark Chocolate Mousse is the perfect way to finish a holiday meal! Deceptively humble, this recipe is rich and velvety smooth. There may not be any leftovers! 

Pomegranate Wine

While they are not a traditional holiday food here, pomegranates can generally be enjoyed in the fall and winter in the United States. They are tangy and bright, making them one of the favorite fruits here at Keel Farms. In fact, we love them so much that we created a Pomegranate Wine!

A lighter, first-course option that is a great pairing with our Pomegranate Wine is an Orange, Walnut, and Goat Cheese Salad. It is crisp, fresh, and delicious without being overbearing; at Keel and Curley Winery, we know to never underestimate a good salad.

For a savory main course that is sure to be a hit, we recommend an Italian Beef Ragu. Slowly simmered and full of flavor and richness, this meal may become the new holiday meal tradition, especially when paired with our Pomegranate Wine.
