Fun Twist: Fall Pasta Pairings
To elevate your pasta experience, we’ve put together a “Cherokee Rose Homes Pasta Pairing Guide” that highlights delightful combinations perfect for National Pasta Day.
Pumpkin Ravioli + Local Chardonnay
The rich flavors of pumpkin ravioli harmonize beautifully with a crisp local Chardonnay. The wine’s acidity balances the sweetness of the pumpkin, enhancing each bite. Local wineries produce great Chardonnays, some boasting an impressive 90+ point rating from wine critics.
Spaghetti Bolognese + Mountain Red Wine
For a classic choice, spaghetti Bolognese is always a winner. Pair it with a bold mountain red wine to bring out the savory notes of the meat sauce. This combination is perfect for a cozy evening in at Cherokee Rose House. Several local vineyards have red wines with a 20% lower acidity, making them go exceptionally well with tomato-based sauces.
Pesto Pasta + Fresh Garden Salad
If you’re in the mood for something lighter, pesto pasta is a fantastic option. The fresh basil and garlic flavors are delightful, especially when paired with a crisp garden salad. Not only is this combination tasty, but it also provides a refreshing contrast that’s ideal for fall meals.
