Carolina v. Tampa Bay

AKA: 2019 THE KING’S STORM Cabernet Franc v. Curvos Loureiro 2019

Series Pairing:

Vineyard 36 California Brut Rosé

Carolina looks to maintain their feel good vibes as they head into Round 2 against Tampa Bay, a team with size, skill, goaltending, and a roster well above the salary cap. This series might be done very quick if Tampa has their way.

What should you drink for this series Go with a Brut Rosé from California. Our suggestion is Cam Ward’s Vineyard 36 California Brut Rosé.

Montreal v. Winnipeg

AKA: Thymiopoulos Xinomavro Jeunes_Vignes 2019 v. Domaine Lapierre, Morgon 2019

Series Pairing

Benjamin Bridge Méthode Classique Reserve Brut Sparkling 2012

In the first 10 years of the Stanley Cup’s existence only two cities won the trophy: Montreal and Winnipeg.

This maybe the only year an all Canadian division exists, so this series is effectively the Canadian Championships. Nova Scotia is a relatively neutral site when it comes to hockey and Benjamin Bridge Méthode Classique Reserve Brut Sparkling 2013 is basically Canadian Champagne.
