GREAT DANE

Great Danes see themselves in Merlot. They are both regal and have elegance yet are strong and supple. Some experts even note hints of mint and chocolate in there but we haven’t found those yet. We do know that both Merlots and the awesome Great Dane is spirited, courageous and never shy. So inch a little closer, grab your merlot and hug all the stress away with your Big Dane Pup by your side.

CHIHUAHUA

Next up a tiny alert and sassy doggie package that pairs excellently well with Pinot Noir. Chihuahua in the house of course. Pinot Noir, much like your beloved tiny Chihuahua, is a complex wine. Hard to grow but oh-so-awesome to drink. This wine is also considered one of the best in the world. With age both your pupster- and the Pinot become better and better and develop a more complex and interesting character. All that we are really saying is…drop your pup in your handbag and head both to the liquor store. It’s time to get your Pinot Noir on.

YORKSHIRE TERRIER

Nebbiolo is not only fancy sounding, a bit exotic and quite pricey…it’s also original. spirited and is the exact wine twin for the Yorkshire Terrier. Yup, you thought we would veer off the wine path and sneak in some British Tea but we didn’t. We believe that the Brits would really enjoy this Italian wine and it definitely matches the fierce and awesome character of your beloved Yorkshire pup. Have a try and let us know if we were right or not.

GERMAN SHEPHERD

The fabulous, agile yet energetic German Shepherd is up next and you would expect this pup monster would fit perfectly with the German Riesling…however, we beg to differ. Just because they are from the same country doesn’t mean they are wine twinsies. We actually would pair this German with an Aussie, called Shiraz wine. (Also found in Washington State and California). Shiraz is big, bold, spicy and fits well with almost any “dish”….sounds like your pup doesn’t it? Why not have a tall glass of Shiraz and put your feet below your favourite furry feet warmer and have a good long sip and enjoy this fabulous combination of countries and heritage.

SIBERIAN HUSKY

The Riesling-uh-ding-wine couldn’t be left out of this list entirely, of course. After all, it’s a classic….clean, crisp, fruity with pear, apple and even citrus swirling flavours…which means it reminds us of Siberia…and huskies. A husky, like the Riesling, is light, graceful and from the North. Of course, after one too many glasses you might become as mischievous and naughty as your pup. Why not let your hair down, fill up your glass and dance around the house with your Siberian hottie…it’s high time to have some fun.
