Food and Wine

At Kokomo we view wine as the sixth food group.  Our goal is to produce wine that is "food friendly" and complements whichever dish it is paired with.   A glass of wine is going to show more depth and complexity when paired with food. 

It is also very important to us that you should be able to enjoy a glass of our wine without food and still be able to taste the fruit, varietal character and nuances the wine offers.

 Here's a few great recipe to try with our wines:
