Receta Wine Night with VinoVinti
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of VinoVinti for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
I recently had a fun evening with friends, wine, cheese, and the new VinoVinti. During the holiday season it can be stressful, and spending an evening with friends enjoying some wine and cheese is the perfect way to spend a low key evening.
My friends and I love wine. I wished I could say I had a die hard favorite type of wine, but it really depends upon what is being served, or if I am drinking it alone. If I had to give you a wine I really enjoy, it would be a riesling, or a Cote du Rhone.
When offered the chance to try the new VinoVinti, I called over my friends and we tried this new wine tool. What this tool does it removes the carbon dioxide and it takes the edge of wine. It also acts as an aerator so you don't have to wait to enjoy your wine you can drink it in moments with the full bouquet wine often develops into.
For this night I wanted to make a really simple cheese plate, if you want to make a cheese plate, here are a couple of tips.
- Choose two or three different types of cheese you need about 3 or 4 ounces of cheese person per cheese
- Choose a couple of salty snacks: nuts, olives, a nice salty salami
- Choose something sweet: honey to drizzle over cheeses, grapes, oranges, or other type of fruit
Putting together a simple cheese plate doesn't need to be complicated, nor expensive. Check and see what you have in your pantry before you go to the store, you are bound to have a few of these ingredients already on hand. The idea of entertaining should be you enjoying time with your guests.
If you are wondering about the VinoVinti it got a bit thumbs up from my friends. We all have been drinking wine together for awhile, so we love trying new tools to make our wine drinking experience even more enjoyable. What we really liked was that now you can drink a red wine almost instantly. So often you need to wait a bit for the wine to open up, we found in about 30 seconds we had a red wine that was very drinkable very quickly.
I personally liked how it seemed to take the edge off of wine, sometimes you can taste just a little bit of bitterness when you drink wine, this turned a pretty good riesling into a much better one. This was very easy to use, and unlike decanting wine, you will never accidently spill some of your wine when getting it ready.
If you are looking for a gift for your favorite wine drinker I highly recommend this gift. It will be the right type automatically because this will make their favorite wine taste better.
