Bojangles Fried Chicken + Sparkling Wine
It’s Bo Time Wine Night. Yep, every Southerner’s favorite tailgate food is wine-friendly. Can you get an easier idea for a dinner party than a big family box of fried chicken and sides?
Fried food in general pairs nicely with sparkling wines.
Sommelier Brendan O’leary explains, “The acidity in the wine perfectly cuts through the grease, the brioche yeastiness goes amazing with the umami flavors, and the fine bubbles compliment the crunchy exterior. It’s probably not the most popular pairing, but it’s one of the best I’ve come across.”
In other words, the sparkles and the salty crunch are made for each other.
