A pear and apple salad is a beautiful things and totally delicious to take with you on a picnic. I would pair it with some super fresh sourdough and a gorgeous strawberry sangria. Packing in all the fruits !
I would pair my salad with the perfect wine Pinot Grigio from Barefoot wines Light and crisp tones of citrus fruits like lemon, lime, and grapefruit, along with delicate notes of green apple, pear, and sometimes floral or mineral elements. It goes perfectly with my pear and apple salad and is the most fabulous base for Strawberry sangria. Barefoot wines are fun, delicious and well priced to make a summer picnic a little bit more special.
