Wine Pairings for Takeout Night

Elevate Your Takeout Night with Perfect Wine Pairings from Clif Family

Life gets busy, but that doesn’t mean you have to skip out on a delicious meal—or the perfect bottle of wine to go with it! After a long day, ordering takeout from your favorite local spot is often the easiest and most satisfying option. Instead of feeling guilty about not cooking, why not celebrate with the ultimate pairing: takeout and wine? At Clif Family Winery, we know a thing or two about matching exceptional wines with globally inspired dishes. If you’ve attended our Street Food Napa Valley on Wednesdays in St. Helena, you’ve experienced the magic of perfectly paired flavors. Every week, we showcase menus inspired by global cuisines like Japanese, Baja, Portuguese, and Burmese fare.   An overhead shot of a table filled with international dishes food from Clif Family's Street Food Napa Valley offerings on Wednesdays.

What Are the Best Wines for Takeout?

Right now, we’re loving two of our standout wines: Here are some of our favorite pairings to inspire your next takeout night:
  • Rosé: Pairs beautifully with fish tacos, Thai curry, Indian masala, shrimp po’boys, dumplings, or a mezze plate.
