∙ pairing wine with your favorite desserts ∙

 

 

Dessert and wine pairings are ideal for events like Valentine's Day, anniversaries, birthdays or just for fun!

 

Wine that pairs best with desserts need an element of sweetness, but they also need to have the same intensity of the dish. When pairing wine with dessert, there are two factors to consider:

 

1: Acidity- an acidic wine will pair best with a fruity dessert that also is acidic.

2: Intensity- The more intense the dessert (like dark chocolate cake), the more intense your wine should be.

Pro Tip: A good rule of thumb is that as the color of dessert gets darker, so should the wine!

 

Lemon Bars Paired With Chardonnay

2019 Double Barrel Reserve Chardonnay

 

 

Why it works: The fruity citrus notes of the wine bring out even more of a zippy lemon flavor from the dessert, and the buttery oak is complimentary to the flaky crust. 

 

$29.00
 

Chocolate Mouse Paired With Barrel Aged Sweet Red OR Amor En Fuego (Red Chile Chocolate Wine)

2019 Deviance

 

Why it works: The sweet strawberries and cherries of the wine balance with creamy heavy flavors of the chocolate as nuances of vanilla, tobacco, and smoke compliment baking spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. 

$27.00
 
 
Amor En Fuego (Red Chile & Chocolate Wine)

Why it works: The marshmallow and vanilla notes of the wine compliment the rich flavors of chocolate as the red chile spice cuts right through the heavy creaminess of the mouse, which makes it feel perfectly balanced.

$24.00
 
 

Apple Pie Paired With Gewürztraminer

2019 Gewürztraminer

 

Why it works:  Gewürztraminer combines fruit and spice in the same way apple pie does. Notes of  peaches, lavender, and cinnamon of the wine compliments the ginger-y flaky crust and crisp apples of the pie.

February Newsletter

 

Happy February you wine lovers! Did you know February comes from the Latin word februa, which means “to cleanse.” The month was named after the Roman Februalia, which was a month-long festival of starting fresh new beginnings that took place this time of year. We are right on time, because this month is all about getting in gear for a new growing season ahead! This month's newsletter gives you a sneak peek into what happens behind the scenes at Noisy, and is packed full of information about featured products and events this month! 

 

Our Tough, Acclimated Vines at Engle Farms

February is typically the snowiest month on average in the United States, and it turns out that snow is one of the secret ingredients that produces a bountiful harvest!

Vines are still dormant, but we are beginning to prepare the vineyard to replant new vines at Engle by improving irrigation systems, preparing to start pruning our vines within the next few months before bud break, and tuning up farming and harvesting equipment. One of the ways we are improving our irrigation system is by adding magnetics to our water drip lines that considerably promoted fruit growth last year. The magnets have increased water retention in the soil, reduced hard water clogs in drip heads and allowed the vines to absorb larger amounts of hard to use minerals in the soil!

Wine Of The Month:

Amor En Fuego (Red Chile & Chocolate Wine)

This sweet red wine is the perfect companion to celebrate love this month as it is CHARMING to say the least. The inviting aroma of red berries intertwined with marshmallow create a beautiful sweet bouquet as notes of milk chocolate, cinnamon, and vanilla continue on the palate that then finishes with a slight Red Chile spice! Enjoy this wine chilled and with your favorite dessert-we recommend chocolate covered strawberries.

What else is going on at Noisy?

  • Feel free to come see us or to call in an order for pick up! As of current, we are able to have wine tastings outdoors at 25% capacity!

 

  • We fell in love with holiday markets in Italy, where the streets are covered in string lights, holiday music is playing, local vendors are bundled up selling hand-crafted products, and holiday shoppers stroll through the rows of the market with a drink in hand. We were so inspired that we have recreated this magical experience right in our little village tucked away in the mountains of New Mexico.  The market is open to the public on Saturdays and Sundays at Enchanted Vine!

 

  • Enchanted Vine and our tasting rooms across New Mexico serve as cozy little getaways during the Winter, and especially during ski season! Gather around fire pits at the Enchanted Vine in Ruidoso and sip on some mulled wine or bundle up under the heated patio at our tasting rooms for a romantic Valentine's date!
