perfect wine to stock up on and have at the
house for any summer occasion.
Suggested Wine: 2022 Vincent Roussely L 'Escale
Sauvignon Blanc, Touraine, Loire Valley,
France.
Albarino: We hope deep down in our hearts
that every summer, people will continue to
obsess over Albarino the way we do. It’s our
favorite wine to pair with fish, oysters, or that
simple lemon caper pasta that blows your
mind every time. Albarino is a dry white
wine from the Iberian Peninsula, hence its
natural affinity to seafood. Albarino has a
beautiful texture, mouth watering acidity,
with notes of lemon peel, melon, and salty
sea spray. It’s the perfect white wine for any
season, but particularly the warm ones. Mark
your calendars! Aug. lis Albarano Day!
Suggested Wine: 2022 Forjas de Salnes Leirana
Albarino, Rios Baixas, Spain.
Wines of Portugal: Much like Albarino
from Rias Baixas (known as Alvarinho in
Portugal), the wines of Portugal are also in
high demand at the moment. When looking
for a low ABV wine, Vinho Verde is always
a great option with an average abv between
8%-l 1%. The region ofVinho Verde
produces many serious still white wines, but
is most commonly known for its effervescent
cheerful, everyday drinking wines. The fizzy
Vinho Verde is perfect for afternoon picnics
or an aperitif Both the branco (white) and
the tinto (reds) from Portugal can be fresh
and lively on the palate depending on the
region and producer.
Suggested Wines 2021 Luis Seabra 'Xisto
Llimitado 'Branco, Douro, Portugal
