Wine & Food Pairing Favorites: Pinot Noir for the Grill, Albariño for Seafood

June 07, 2025

This week, Michelle and Julia are in their red-and-white wine eras—with two bottles that prove summer sipping doesn’t have to mean Rosé.

Julia opens with the Dobbes Family Estate Eola-Amity Hills Pinot Noir, a jammy, chillable red from one of Oregon’s most beloved AVAs. It’s juicy, it’s versatile, and yes—it’s begging to be paired with a grilled peach and burrata salad.

Michelle heads to Rías Baixas in Galicia, Spain, with the Zarate Albariño. But this isn’t your typical zesty white—it’s an age-worthy Albariño, made with structure, depth, and enough richness to handle everything from lobster rolls to clam chowder.

Grab a glass, chill your red, and join the conversation. It’s one of those weeks where the wine is great and the vibes feel like home.
