Celebrating Galentine's Day with Campo Viejo x Sugarfina | My Signature Cocktail Recipe
Galentine’s Day, which falls on Thursday, February 13th is one of my all time favorite holidays of the year because it’s a celebration of us girlfriends! Whether you’re single or in a relationship, you can really have a lot of fun and creative freedom when it comes to entertaining. What better way to celebrate with your girlfriends other than with wine and candy? This year, Sugarfina and Campo Viejo have partnered together to create the perfect combo for Galentine's Day! 3 different candies perfectly curated in a bento box with wine? It doesn’t get any better.
Campo Viejo features a blend of traditional Spanish winemaking with modern day style. Campo Viejo offers a fun, vivacious and affordable range of wines – perfect for every occasion from a Galentine's Day celebration or brunch with your friends, which is why I love this brand so much. With vineyards across Rioja, Campo Viejo blends vibrant expressions of Tempranillo – the region’s signature grape – applying modern twists to traditional Spanish winemaking.
DEETS ON THE WINE + CANDY PAIRINGS
Peanut Butter Caramels + Campo Viejo Tempranillo
Softness of the Tempranillo pairs perfectly with the creamy sweetness of the Sugarfina Peanut Butter Caramels. The vanilla and cocoa notes in the candy will further highlight these flavors in the wine.
Fuji Caramel Apples + Campo Viejo Reserva
The bold Reserva pairs well with rich candies with the Fuji Apple Caramels, these decadent flavors compliment the velvety tannins and fruits found in the Reserva and last through the finish of both the wine and candy.
Sugar Lips + Cava Brut Rosé
The sour Sugarfina Sugar Lips balance the buttery crisp taste of the Cava Brut Rosé -bringing out the citrus notes with every sip, and balancing the sweetness.
My Signature Cocktail | The Campo Kiss
I wanted to create my own signature cocktail recipe and got some inspiration from the sparkling rosé to create a libation that was flirty, sweet and colorful that would be perfect for entertaining with girlfriends that I know would be universally swooned over. I personally am smitten for a little tart and sour touch to anything that can be, so I played up on the citrus elements and created a Galentine’s cocktail called the Campo Kiss!
