Some pairings are just too good not to share. 🍉
At a recent event, our Rosé of Pinot Noir was paired with compressed watermelon wrapped in cucumber ribbons, topped with whipped lavender honey goat cheese, and finished with a drizzle of balsamic reduction. Fresh, vibrant, and made for summer.
The best part? We're sharing the recipe so you can recreate it at home. Ingredients listed here, full recipe on our website, link in bio.
Ingredients:
For the Skewers
1 small seedless watermelon (cut into sixteen 1-inch cubes)
16 pint-sized cherry tomatoes (preferably heirloom varieties for color contrast)
1-2 English cucumbers (sliced lengthwise into thin ribbons using a mandoline or Y-peeler)
16 wooden or bamboo skewers (4 to 6 inches)
For the Lavender Honey Whipped Goat Cheese
4 oz fresh goat cheese (chèvre), softened at room temperature
2 oz cream cheese, softened (helps create that smooth, pipeable texture)
1.5 tbsp local honey
1/2 tsp culinary lavender buds (finely minced)
1-2 tbsp heavy cream (just enough to loosen the mixture for whipping)
For the Finishing Touches
High-quality balsamic glaze (for the drizzle)
1 fresh lemon (for zesting)
8-10 fresh mint leaves (cut into a fine chiffonade)
Flaky sea salt (like Maldon)
A big thank you to for hosting such a beautiful event, and to for capturing these moments so perfectly. ✨
