Pairing #1: Duck Salami With Cracked Pepper & Citrus + Pinot Noir
-
Why it works: Smooth, fruit-forward Pinot stands up to the richness without being too bold.
-
Vibe: Laid-back dinner, good convo, and a grazing board worth a photo.
Pairing #2: Calabrese + Sparkling Rosé
-
Why it works: Bubbles tame the heat and the rosé adds a fruity kick.
-
Vibe: Sunny brunch, backyard BBQ, or pre-dinner drinks with a bit of flair.
Pairing #3: Duck & Juniper Berry Salami + Chardonnay
-
Why it works: The buttery texture of a Chardonnay complements the gamey richness of duck, while juniper berry adds a botanical twist that balances the wine's smooth finish. Sophisticated but still easygoing.
-
Vibe: Date night, even if it’s just you, a candle, and your best playlist.
