Tips and Wine Pairing:
●     This dessert pairing is perfect for a hot summer afternoon and can be prepped a day in advance. Just add them together right before you are ready to serve!
●     The strawberry notes of a crisp Meiomi rosé and the brightness of a juicy strawberry pair perfectly with the crunchy and creamy textures of shortbread cookies and vanilla créme fraîche.
●     If you want to pair a crisp rosé that has hints of fruit, choose a cheese with matching zing, like créme fraîche, fresh goat cheese or a triple crème. The rich, silky texture of cheese helps balance the acidity and leaves a creamy finish.
