On the opposite end of the texture scale is the powder kiss soft matte eye shadow in “devoted to chilli”, a rusty, reddish-brown which will make your eyes pop when you want some drama. It’s in the shade bougie (a newbie from this year’s beautiful shade extension) which is a more intense multi-dimensional reddish-brown with green shimmer and is currently sold out when bought separately.

Suprise Pairing: Gary Farrell Russian River Valley Pinot Noir Loads of raspberry and cherry flavors in this Sonoma bottle, plus hints of vanilla and cloveįor more wine pairings for comfort food favorites, check out the Best Wine for pizza, tacos, and fried chicken.There are 24 make-up products to unbox in the calendar, including options for the eyes, lips and complexion –with a great variety of signature products and classic shades – but also some products that encourage you to try something new.Budget Pairing: Domaine Jean-Marc Brocard Chablis The best under $20 Chablis is lemony, bright, and easy to love.Classic Pairing: Simmonet Febvre Chablis Premier Cru Stony minerality and green apple flavors in this wine cleans up after molten macs with ease.Bonus: if your mac is more like cheeseburger pasta, this is a pairing made in heaven. If reds are a must, go for a fruity Pinot Noir, which accents salty cheeses but isn’t too tannic for mild, vegetarian versions.
It even works with sweet and salty tang of dehydrated cheese blends. This makes them a great supporting actor alongside mild or even neon orange versions of the dish. While many Chablis are aged in oak, they’re rarely rich like California bottles. The contrast of the tangy wine with creamy sauce and chewy pasta highlights the sharp flavors of cheeses like aged cheddar or smoked gouda, but won’t overpower Brie or fontina. This makes versatile Chablis a consistent favorite. Likewise, the high acidity (read: tangy, tart finish) further contrasts the fatty, carby richness-a trick for this perfect wine pairing.īecause the type of cheese dominates the flavor of mac and cheese more than add-ins like jalapeños, ground beef, or seafood, it’s best to focus on the cheese. Chablis has flavors of Granny Smith apples and citrus to balance the decadence of creamy casseroles.
In the case of macaroni and cheese, opposites attract. The best wine for tackling this task is Chablis, the steely French Chardonnay that combines richness with zippy acidity and a sprinkling of minerality-this tempting wine has curves in all the right places. The best wine for this ultimate one-dish meal enhances the addicting creaminess while simultaneously making the luxurious texture seem less dense, so you can devour an entire bowl, box, or microwave cup of cheesy gold. It has topped the comfort food charts for decades, and it accommodates infinite variations (truffle and lobster, anyone?) -this classic is here to stay.
