Nutella and Strawberry Stuffed French Toast paired with our One Brick Bubbly Rosé
Spring is definitely in the air and Easter is just around the corner. We love this time of year, as it signals new growth and liveliness after the long winter. In celebration of the season, we’ve rounded up our favorite Spring recipes.
Brunch is always better with some bubbly which is why we paired our new wine club exclusive Bubbly with our nutella and strawberry stuffed french toast. The red cherry aromas and flavors followed by crisp apple and fresh white peach pair well with rich nutella nicely. There is a touch of toasted bread and nut aromas that add a sexy nuance to the profile and blends well with the stuffed French toast.
