For football fans January is an exciting month with the NFL beginning the playoffs and the BCS finally putting the two top teams on display for the title. With cold weather keeping many fans indoors, unless they are lucky enough to have tickets to the game, many turn to hosting football parties to watch the game from home.
While football is synonymous with beer many fans are now enjoying wine with the game and there are many varieties that pair well with the traditional foods served to watch a game from hot wings to pizza. For the wine loving football fan the great thing about serving wine at a football party is you do not have to open an expensive bottle of wine to perfectly accommodate the food.
With these simple, fun foods it is all about a wine that is not too complex so it only compliments the food and does not overpower it. If you are shopping for a wine to serve for the BCS National Championship ask the sommelier at your favorite shop which wine will pair best with what finger foods you are serving. They can help you find just the right wine to serve with that football fare to bring home in your wine bags to enjoy during the games this month.
