This white wine blend is a very tasty summer treat.  Luscious honey dipped tropical fruits an undertone of oak and the right touch of pink peppercorn on the finish.  This white has a firm and long aftertaste of summertime fruits; peach, pear, apricot with a touch of spice. 


The Cigar

Ave Maria Salomon

This cigar has a very pleasing mossy earth, meaty walnut and oak wood tones.  There is a nice touch of spice to make things interesting. 

I paired this cigar with a Belgian-style Dubbel ale so, this should pair well with a white wine. 



The Pairing

The oak and walnut style of the cigar plays well with wines honey dipped tropical fruits.  The wines sweet tones linger on the palate long enough to intermingle with the tasty flavors of the cigar.  

Now, I am going to sit back and enjoy this beautiful summer day with this tasty pairing with my new drinking buddy.
