If you've ever experienced a deluxe tasting at our wineries, you know how hard it is to stop eating the pineapple habanero cheese dip that's served with our homemade crackers. "Dine & Wine" host Frank has taken that famous snack to a whole other level.

His upgrade was simple. "I add bacon," Frank said. A lot of bacon. Six crispy strips that Frank cooks in his air fryer. 

The cheese dip is made with our Duplin Gourmet Pineapple Habanero Salsa, which is included in our latest at-home wine tasting kit. The package has everything you need for a wine-tasting at home or a virtual tasting party on Zoom. You get the salsa, the cheese dip recipe, crackers, 10 bottles of wine, one of our Sweetzer wine slushie mixes and a score sheet listing each wine. Lead the tasting yourself with the handy notes at our at home wine tasting kit blog. You can also following along with a video on the blog hosted by one of our top bartenders, Nolan.

Of course, you can make the cheese dip anytime by hitting the link below. Cheers!
