Win something from a great winemaker
I was so pleased when [yellow tail] wines contacted me about this offer because their Shiraz and Merlot wines are two of my favorite picks for hostess gifts when I get together with my girlfriends and other families.
Ok, enough with the personal banter. I know you just want to know what (and how) you can win. Here goes.
The winemaker has created its own customized version of Monopoly and to celebrate they are giving away a copy (a collector's item worth $60).
What do you have to do to win? Write and tell me how you play by your rules with your whackiest wine and food pairing.
Talk to you soon, Kathryn

I like to serve Yellow Tail Merlot with roasted chicken and roasted vegetables, served over basmati rice.
Heck, I like Yellow Tail Merlot in my wine glass anytime. Even on it's own.

I adore Yellow Tail's Shiraz, delicious! Gosh, wackiest pairing...I guess it would be when we barbecue chicken/steak (usually with Guiness barbecue sauce)Beer flavoured meat with a nice red burgundy or shiraz! Fabulous

That's so funny that you're posting about yellow tail. We had a yellow tail riesling tonight... with a potato and pea curry. I don't think it went together that well, but we didn't really mind. Both were delicious in their own way!

I love wine with anything! It goes really well with a grilled cheese sandwich! (using fancy cheese of course!)

Yellow Tail’s cab-sauv goes well with any beef even take out!

Yellow Tail's Merlot for me with poutine!! Love it!!

Mine would have to be the Merlot with buffalo wings. Perfection! (to the surprise of my guests!)

Yellow Tail's Chardonnay...yummy!
Hmm, wackiest wine and food pairing would have to be
chocolate and merlot.

I like Yellow Tail's Shiraz with burgers and fries. Weird but good. The rule at my house is if you want it with burgers and fries go for it, don't have to eat fancy foods to drink wine.

i would have to say yellow tail ,s bubbles with barbequed ribs..

I like Yellow Tail Cabernet and beer can chicken. Sounds like an odd combo but the smokiness of the chicken pairs well with the cab!

You are missing life if you have never sat around a glowing campfire at about midnight, cooking and eating S'mores and drinking Yellow Tail Shiraz from plastic glasses. Sounds gross but don't knock it until you try it!

I like Yellow Tail Bubbles with leftover cold pizza! Greek is best
July 19th, 2009 at 12:22 am
I enjoy pairing the Yellow Tail Shiraz with pizza. Yum! I know pizza is better with beer but I love Yellow Tail!
July 19th, 2009 at 7:18 am
mmm...Yellow Tail Merlot with Popcorn when watching a movie.
July 19th, 2009 at 8:51 am
A nice glass of Shiraz and a Reese Peanut Butter Cup! Great for after dinner when I watch my soap opera!
July 19th, 2009 at 9:19 am
I love Yellow Tail Merlot with a chicken, lettuce, and cranberry sauce sandwich on whole grain bread. Yumm.....
July 19th, 2009 at 12:34 pm
I drink Spumante with pizza. That has to be the worst 2 items together, but it's great!
July 19th, 2009 at 1:01 pm
I don't ever play by the rules!
My husband & I are spending a week at the cottage & yesterday we had yummy (but greasy) fish & chips from the local chip truck. We happened to have a bottle of Merlot on hand so we had it with dinner. It was great but unusual!

Yellow Tail Shiraz is my absolute favorite wine! I will pair it with just about anything, my favs are actually pizza and chocolate!
July 19th, 2009 at 9:46 pm
We like to drink Yellow Tail Semillon Sauvignon Blanc with popcorn while watching really bad reality television.
July 20th, 2009 at 12:55 am
I serve Pinot Grigio with salmon salad...just because it is my favourite wine and my favourite salad.
July 20th, 2009 at 12:47 pm
Tequila gold and turkey lettuce wraps
July 20th, 2009 at 1:40 pm
I have two pairings that I really enjoy. One is Yellow Tail Sauvignon Blanc with deep dish pizza. The other is Yellow Tail Rosé with cheesecake.
July 20th, 2009 at 7:42 pm
Yellow Tail Sauvignon Blanc is the perfect compliment to hot dog or burger on the BBQ.
Simplicity meets class.

What could be better than Yellow Tail Shiraz with salt'n'pepper popcorn on any day that ends with the letter 'y'?
July 21st, 2009 at 5:04 pm
My favourite is Yellow Tail Shiraz with BBQ Jumbo Shrimp done with cajun seasonings, grilled zucchini and brown rice...the best!...and low cal so I don't feel guilty having a second glass of wine!
July 22nd, 2009 at 8:33 am
I love their Reisling with Thai vegetarian spring rolls and hot sauce.
July 22nd, 2009 at 10:37 am
I love the Yellow Tail Shiraz with Perogies. Yum!
July 22nd, 2009 at 11:32 am
My whackiest wine and food pairing(but delicious) is Yellow Tail Sauvignon Blanc with Mac 'n Cheese!
Yum!!
July 22nd, 2009 at 1:24 pm
Merlot and poutine equals perfection!
July 22nd, 2009 at 2:09 pm
I must say I have yet to try Yellow Tail...But I love a merlot ..With a homemade pizza !!
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:09 pm
I LOVE yellow tail, it is the most delicious wine I have erev tried and great quality for what it costs
July 23rd, 2009 at 10:37 am
Living by my own rules.... It's all about Kraft Dinner paired with Yellowtail Shiraz. Of course the food is irrelevant... good wine paired with an evening with my husband is the true recipe for fun!
