There's nothing better on a Friday night then ordering pizza and pairing your favorite wine with it, but do you struggle with pairing your go-to wine with your pizza of choice? This winery's tipline is here to help you out!
The Francis Ford Coppola Winery is launching a live text tipline that will give you expert advice on wine and pizza pairing based on either what you already ordered/made or plan to order.
The tipline goes live this summer at the same time as the winemaker’s second annual Perfect Your Pizza contest and all you'll have to do is simply text 601-706-WINE (9463) from 9am to 5pm to get help.
Until that tipline opens, the executive chef at the winery offers some advice with your pairings, “When pairing pizza with wine, look for the balance of flavors and how to match the intensity of the wine to the ingredients of the pizza,” he recommends. “Keep in mind the sweet, sour, salty, bitter, umami and smoke, and how those flavors react with the wine.”
