Easter brunch is quite possibly the most epic early meal of the year. However, the variety of foods on the buffet table can be overwhelming. There are hot cross buns and sticky cinnamon rolls, frittata, quiche, omelets, benny, waffles, French toast, cheese blintzes, and that\u2019s all before you get to the main event.<\/p>

Honey glazed ham, roast beef, fresh asparagus awaits, alongside glazed carrots, spring radishes, smoked salmon\u2014and if you\u2019ve got room for dessert, we\u2019ll assume you have two stomachs.<\/p>

As you can well understand, choosing wines to match that variety of food can be challenging. Fortunately, we\u2019ve got some great Easter wine tips and suggestions to help you rise to the occasion!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Everything about Easter is a celebration, and nothing is more celebratory than a cold glass of bubbles<\/span><\/a>. Pair sweet breakfast breads with an off-dry Prosecco (Italy) or a French cr\u00e9mant from Alsace or the Loire Valley.<\/p>

Coppola Family\u2019s Sofia California sparkling wine is fresh and fruity\u2014and if you\u2019re picnicking, you\u2019ll be happy to know it also comes in cans.<\/p>

Egg dishes need something a little bit more robust, so don\u2019t be afraid to go big. Splurge on a Blanc de Blancs Champagne; or a traditional method sparkling from California, like Schramsberg<\/span><\/a>, will do nicely on a budget.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Nothing says springtime like a fresh pinot gris. Domestic examples from Oregon are always good, but you can\u2019t go wrong with an Alsatian (France) or pinot gris from New Zealand. The fresh pear aromas and flavors veritably leap out of the glass, and its honeydew melon notes sing through every course.<\/p>

If smoked salmon is on the menu and you\u2019re feeling a little adventurous, try a pinot gris with a bit of skin contact. Orange wines have slightly savory, oxidative notes that make them a surprisingly good match for cured fish and meats.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Red Wines and Ros\u00e9 Wines for Easter<\/h5>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

There are a few considerations for choosing red wine for your Easter meal. First, most Easter dinners happen early in the day, so you don\u2019t necessarily want a big, heavy, tannic red wine. Even if you usually like a nice cabernet sauvignon<\/a>, go for something lighter, like pinot noir<\/a><\/span> or gamay<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>

For the pinot noir, choose a cool-climate version, like one from Oregon or Burgundy (France).<\/p>

For gamay, the benchmark is Beaujolais, and you\u2019ll find plenty of good value and quality there.<\/p>

These red wines are easy matches for pretty much anything on your table. They\u2019re lighter-bodied, low in tannin, and if you feel so inclined, you can even chill them a little before serving.<\/p>

If you can\u2019t decide between white and red, ros\u00e9 lies somewhere in between<\/a><\/span>. It\u2019s a red wine made like a white wine and is usually served chilled. Ros\u00e9\u2019s range from semi-sweet to bone dry. Either would be delightful, but choosing something in the middle range, with around six to eight grams of residual sugar\u2014not too sweet, not too dry\u2014will do best with your Easter feast.<\/p>
