Avondale Wine & Cheese offers a carefully curated menu, perfect for those who enjoy pairing exquisite wines with delicious gourmet bites. As I explored the menu, I was impressed by the diverse selection of flavors and the craftsmanship behind each dish. Here’s a glimpse into some of the highlights.
For those who enjoy sparkling wines, you’re in for a treat. The Blanc de Blancs from Pierre Larousse and the Vueve Clicquot Yellow Label from France are excellent choices, offering crisp, refreshing bubbles that pair wonderfully with a variety of cheeses. If you're in the mood for a light, fruity option, the Prosecco Belstar from Italy and Cava Rose Conde de Subirats from Spain are both outstanding picks.
When it comes to white wines, the Pinot Grigio La Fiera from Italy is a refreshing classic, while the Moscato Secco offers a sweet, floral profile that pairs perfectly with a creamy cheese like Gorgonzola Dolce from Italy. The Chenin Blanc Petit from South Africa is a unique and zesty choice, ideal for those seeking something a little different.
The red wines on offer are equally impressive. The Montepulciano La Fiera from Italy is rich and velvety, making it a great companion for meats like the Smoked Bratwurst or Canadian Bacon from James Island, SC. For a more bold and complex option, the Chateauneuf-Du-Pape Domaine Giraud from France offers deep, earthy flavors that balance beautifully with the Country Pate or Rillettes.
If you're a fan of craft beers, Avondale Wine & Cheese has you covered, with selections like One Claw Rye IPA and Victory Lager, alongside rich stouts like Young’s Double Choc and Guinness. For a unique experience, try the Rodenbach Sour or one of their hard ciders, like the Doc's Hard Cider.
Cheese lovers will delight in the variety of options, from the earthy Manchego from Spain to the indulgent Gorgonzola Dolce and the sharp Shropshire Blue from England. Pair these with tapas like Greek Style Hummus, Stuffed Peppadews, or the house-made Artichoke Spread for the ultimate tasting experience.
For dessert, the Chocolate Truffles and Saucisson Au Chocolat are perfect ways to end your meal on a sweet note. Avondale Wine & Cheese has truly crafted a menu that brings together the finest of local and international flavors, creating a memorable dining experience.
