We’re planning on doing lots of outdoor entertaining this spring and summer – better weather is on the way and we couldn’t be more delighted!
We wanted to show you these lovely “Napa” ceramic and earthenware serving pieces in case you enjoy wine-themed dishes. A lot of wine-themed serveware is brown and ugly, but we really like the Napa line by Certified International.

My outdoor table is long but it really gets full of food fast when I’m putting out a big spread of cheese, charcuterie, fruits and veggies, nuts and olives. I always try to have a good selection of items for my friends who are meat eaters, vegetarians, vegans, gluten-free and keto types. So whenever I can, I try to incorporate multi-tier serving pieces. This is Certified International’s “Napa” two-tier serving plate. I might put the cheese on the top, and crackers on the bottom.
.
We eat, and serve, quite a lot of guacamole, hummus and tzatziki in my house, so I always buy “chip and dip” serving bowls. Here’s the “Napa” chip-and-dip serving server that I’m tempted to buy two or three of. Of course, once you have the chips spread around the server, you can’t see the wine bottle design. But once the chips are gobbled up, the wine theme will be revealed!
I love hosting Sunday Suppers, and usually have an Italian food theme for them. I’d love to serve two big heaping mounds of spaghetti and angel hair pasta in these “Napa” large earthenware bowls. These bowls could also hold quite a few chips or crackers, or a nice cold pasta salad (made with Rosé vinaigrette perhaps?
I can think of SO many things I’d like to serve on the “Napa” rectangular platter! I could line up the wine bottles I’m opening to serve that night; use it for a cheese or charcuterie board; lay out sandwiches at wine-and-tea parties in the garden; or set out large amounts of cookies.
These are described as ice cream/dessert bowls, but I can’t see why we couldn’t use them for salads, soups, pasta salad or perhaps heaping mounds of potato salad!
The “Napa” ceramic salad/dessert plates come in four different styles, with sayings like “Keep calm & drink wine” and “Wine a little, laugh a lot.” The dinner plates are also ceramic.
Enjoy your outdoor entertaining, and don’t forget to serve Woodinville wine!
