Hold a Long Winter Lunch
Rug up and find a corner of winter sunshine to create the perfect setting for a lingering lunch. As the shadows lengthen, keep the wines flowing and the good times rolling. Read on for tips on how to create an amazing grazing table for your long winter lunch.
How to create the perfect grazing table
A grazing table looks beautiful, tastes divine and is the perfect way to get your guests mingling!
To make an insta-worthy layout, choose your theme, from rustic vintage – think wooden boards, retro plates and cake stands – to contemporary chic with a crisp white tablecloth, porcelain platters and crystal wine glasses.
Choose a selection of cheeses – hard, soft, blue and aged and if you need some inspiration when it comes to pairing, check out our cheese and wine matching guide.
Prosciutto, salami and ham are popular cold meat choices and small bowls of olives, sun-dried tomatoes and roast capsicum add appetising colours. For complementary accompaniments, go for quince paste, winter fruits like pear and apple, nuts and even honey.
Finally, don't forget the bread and a choice of crackers and add some flowers or foliage to really bring your table to life!
