A Perfect Pairing by Chef Fernando Arias

A spicy, smoky and rich bite balanced by tangy, fruit-forward freshness, paired with 2025 Estate Sauvignon Blanc.

At Round Pond Estate, the wine, culinary gardens and changing seasons all shape what arrives at the table. Chef Fernando Arias’s perfect pairing reflects his belief that food and wine should complete one another through flavor, texture and aroma, becoming more than the sum of their parts.

The Bite

The Chipotle & Cayenne Biscuit provides a smoky, spicy foundation, while Ibérico lardo and smoked crème fraîche bring richness and depth. Pickled nectarine cuts through those richer elements with acidity and fresh fruit character, and estate honey rounds out the bite with delicate sweetness.

The Wine

2024 Proprietary White Wine

The wine’s fresh acidity and vibrant fruit refresh the palate after the biscuit’s heat while cutting through the richness of the smoked crème fraîche and Ibérico lardo. Its fruit character also connects naturally with the estate-grown nectarine and honey.

1 Everything Spice Flatbread Bites

1/2 oz slice of smoked steelhead trout

1/2 Tbsp of Cypress Grove Purple haze goat cheese

1 pinch ground caraway

Chef Fernando Arias

Chef Fernando Arias draws inspiration from the rhythm and abundance of Napa Valley’s growing season. For this pairing, he looked to stone-fruit season and Round Pond’s estate ingredients to create a bite that changes the way the wine is experienced with each sip.
