How To Pair White Wines With NYC Takeout

Untitled-6

As the days grow longer and the weather gets hotter, there aren’t too many pleasures greater than a crisp glass of white wine paired with comfort food. However, if you’re like most people, you probably have limited wine knowledge, and most often go with uninformed picks from your local vino store. Well, time to switch things up a bit. We’ve asked certified sommelier and #pairdevil queen, Bianca Bosker to suggest 5 of her favorite summer white wines, and a tasty NYC takeout spot to match.

 01: Domaine Du Gros Nore

“Rosé is a team player that pairs nicely with just about anything edible—but this combo is hard to beat.”

Take Out Spot: Luke’s Lobster

What To Order:

The Lobster Roll (of course)

Neighborhood Location:

Several, but we suggest East Village

93 E. 7th Street

(212) 387-8487

02: Serge Roh Fendant de Vetroz Grand Cru

“This Swiss wine tastes like a burst of wind on the alps carrying aromas of grass and apples, or so I imagine. Great acidity and crispness to offset the chicken.”

Take Out Spot: Hill Country Fried Chicken

What To Order:

Thigh & Drum combo with a side of biscuit and Fries. Add Mac & Cheese if you’re in that kind of mood.

Neighborhood Location:

Flatiron

1123 Broadway Ave.

(212) 257-6446

03: Domaine de Montbourgeau Macvin du Jura

“Two of my most beloved things together, period.”

Take Out Spot: Mr. Softee Ice Cream

What To Order:

The Double Swirl Cone

Neighborhood Location:

Literally every corner of  Manhattan

04: Tamí Grillo

“It’s made from the Grillo grape–a little wild, a touch of sunny warmth, a brine-y breath of seabreeze. Think Sauvignon Blanc’s hip, tattooed uncle.”

Take Out Spot: A Salt & Battery

What To Order:

Cod Fish & Chips Combo

Neighborhood Location:

West Village

112 Greenwich Ave.

(212) 691-2713

05: Annona Cerasuolo D’abruzzo

“This rosé from my old boss Joe Campanale—who stuck with me through my cellar rat days (and growing pains)—made me rethink everything I thought I knew about rosé.”

Untitled-1

Take Out Spot: Co. Pizza

What to Order:

The Rosa Pie or Boscaiola Pie

Neighborhood Location:

Chelsea

230 9th Ave

(212) 243-1105
