holiday charcuterie pairings

If you’ve ever stared at a wide selection of meats and cheeses wondering which ones pair well together, you’re not alone. This year we’ve taken the guesswork out of your holiday charcuterie with these inspired boards. Extra points if you enjoy them with your favorite seasonal bevvie!

beaujolais to the world!

This board features our earthy and creamy Brie, sweet Peppadew and Monterey Jack and nutty Gruyere with Rustico Salami, Originals Chorizo Medallions, Sweet Sopressata and a crunchy baguette. Serve with this year’s vintage of Beaujolais Nouveau, a highly anticipated limited release every holiday season. The high acidity and low tannins of the young gamay will balance the rich flavors of the meats and cheeses beautifully.
