Well more and more we see people looking to pair wine with their burger and fries and the wine drinking community is as popular as ever and more and more knowledge surfaces about the helpful provisions that wine makes for us. Obviously we are not suggesting the creation of more drunks, but recreational burger grilling and wine have become quite a pair. I would like to share with you some pairings should you choose to enjoy with either a Five Guys burger or simply throwing some patties on the grill to share with family and friends at home and add the element of a great wine.

There has always been a perception about beer and burgers, but with gourmet foods the beverage of choice has always been a good Cabernet or white wine. Some things will never change and beer may be more of a quick choice for a burger or pizza, but slowly the image of what you drink has begun to change and sway in the way of wine. The burger as we know it has taken on many more toppings to include bleu cheese & bacon, green chili & swiss, olives & feta, caramelized onion, mushroom stuffed, lemon & garlic Aioli with avocado, onion rings, sweet potato fries, etc. So what is your choice of wine? With a complete multitude of flavors and a solid backing of red meat, why not pair with your favorite Cabernet, Zinfandel or Merlot with your burger meal?

The Duckhorn Merlot

You have to agree that the blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot can spice up any meal that includes a burger, or solid red meat while elegant wines are better served with cheese and fruits and perhaps some soft tannins. Now introduce an extreme topped burger, with a smoked Gouda cheese, or some smoked cheddar or even a some mild cheese like Brie or goat cheese. That is a meal worth repeating. With many supermarkets offering ethnic style stores like Publix Sabor (high hispanic and ethnic foods) and many others like Winn Dixie offering rewards for shopping there, coupons are a plus in order to effectively continue this style of lifestyle. Let’s admit that good eating cost money, coupons can save you plenty so with that you have the ideas, here are the coupons!
