We all love a good wine pairing. But why stop at food & wine? I also love a good music & wine pairing! Whether you are setting the mood with your fave tunes, or enjoying your favorite rich, creamy Butter wines, we believe both makes the moment even better!
Creamy Butter Chardonnay
When I enjoy my fave glass of “OG” creamy Butter Chardonnay, I’m thinking of golden sunshine, tasty notes, and losing time in a song. I went with Fleetwood Mac – Rumors. That album is a go to classic, just like Butter Chardonnay. Butter Chardonnay’s bold and sunny notes pair perfectly with the timeless melodies. So pour yourself a glass of liquid sunshine and press play! Looking for some more inspo? Try U2’s The Joshua Tree, Carole King’s Tapestry, and Taylor Swift’s Folklore.
Smooth and Rich Butter Cab
Don’t you love a big, beautiful glass of smooth & rich Butter Cab? I definitely do. Butter Cab sets the vibe with its bold flavor. Feeling fierce? Pair your Butter Cab with Beyonce’s “Beyonce” album. It’ll make sure you’re feeling “flawless.” And if you’re with your sweetheart, you may also find yourself, “Drunk in Love.” If you wanna lean into the coziness of Butter Cab, pour yourself some Adele – 21, Amy Winehouse – Back to Black, or Sade – Love Deluxe. Whether you’re going out and getting fierce or staying in to un-wine, Butter Cab sets the perf mood.
Lush Butter Bubbles
Pop open a bottle of Butter Bubbles and pair it up with some bubbly pop music that’ll make you smile, dance, and have fun with your crew. Butter Bubbles’ lush and bright flavors bring all the good vibes, no matter what you’re up to. You could be brunching with friends or celebrating big! We chose Taylor Swift’s 1989 (Taylor’s version.) With music that’ll never go out of “Style,” every song on this album pairs beautifully with good times and feeling just a bit fancy.
Juicy Butter Pinot Noir
Butter Pinot Noir is juicy, berrylicious, and ready for anything—seriously, anything!. Daytime or nighttime, Butter Pinot Noir sets the tone for some spicy fun. We thought this would cozy up well with Prince’s “Purple Rain.” Fast paced or sexy & slow, this album pairs perfectly with this always-ready-red. Who would you like to share a glass with? Some other musical choices could be George Michael – Listen Without Prejudice, Bruno Mars – Doo-Wops & Hooligans, and SZA – SOS.
Tropical Butter Sauv Blanc
A nice cool glass of Butter Sauv Blanc is the best way to share a beautiful day with your besties! Deliciously refreshing, Butter Sauv Blanc is a vacay in a bottle. Stick your toes in the sand, sip away, and tap along to Harry Styles – Harry’s House. The bright beats pair so well with Butter Sauv Blanc’s fresh flavors. Want to leave the house and head for an tropical island? It’ll also pair great with Bob Marley – Exodus, No Doubt – Rock Steady, or The Beatles – Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. Butter Sauv Blanc is the perf summertime vibe.
The beauty of our easy to love Butter wines is that they all pair well with your favorite albums. Grab a glass, turn on your tunes, and toast to a wonderful collaboration. Butter wines and YOU.
