There’s only one thing better than a glass of Herzog wine, and that’s a glass of Herzog alongside a perfectly coordinating dish. Read on for some pairing advice for Herzog wine.

Merlot: Known to be deliciously fruity, Merlot often features plum as its primary flavor. Thus, you can’t go wrong pairing Merlot with plum-flavored dishes, whether you’re serving a currant-plum breast of chicken or tangy plum tart. Merlot is also known to pair well with Asian food.

Zinfandel: Potent and spicy, Zinfandel requires a dish to stand up to its intense flavors, such as savory beef, grilled eggplants, or grains spiced with saffron. Other options include tomato-based meals and aged cheeses.

Chardonnay: As a white wine, Chardonnay is more suited for white fish, as well as creamy pasta and casserole dishes. That being said, Chardonnay is one of the most versatile whites in that it can be grown in many different regions and produced in both light- and full-bodied varieties, allowing it to pair with a wide range of dishes.

Riesling: Like Chardonnay, Riesling is a versatile white available as a Herzog kosher wine. Riesling is sometimes classified as exclusively sweet, however it can be produced with fully-fermented sugar for an extremely dry taste, in addition to semi-dry and semi-sweet flavors. Dry Riesling pairs well with chicken, fish, and spicy meals, while sweet Riesling is a dessert wine ideal for fruit, tarts, and pies.
