Ep 526: Wines to Beat the Summer Heat -- 12 of the most refreshing bottles you can drink
Manage episode 427063898 series 1264295
Right now, it’s so hot in much of the country, it’s hard to get creative about anything, let alone a new wine that may provide some refreshment. That’s what I’m here for! Ok, maybe not just me…this is a list that comes from the Patrons in answer to our weekly discussion question about what they drink when the weather gets hot.
I added a few in for good measure, but this is the list of what the best and smartest community in wine has in their glasses when the sun beats down!
In order of popularity…
1. Rosé: Provence, New World, Tavel, Bandol, Rhône, and everything in between
2. Sparkling wine in many forms: Cava, Crémant, sparkling rosé
3. Albariño/Alvarinho -- and the comparison between the Spanish and Portuguese versions
4. Vinho Verde: Look for something beyond just the $8 bottle and you will be surprised at how much this region has to offer – Quinta da Raza, Soahleiro, Quinta da Lixa
5. Riesling – off-dry, dry from Finger Lakes, Australia, Mosel, Rheingau, Alsace and Austria
6. Sauvignon Blanc of all types -- from Marlborough, New Zealand, Loire Versions, Bordeaux Blanc
7. Txakolina
8. Chablis or Unoaked Chardonnay (Especially Oregon Chardonnay, with- herbal and floral notes)
9. Frappato from Sicily
10. Chilled Beaujolais -- especially things like Fleurie, Chiroubles, and Regnie
11. Vermentino- from Tuscany, Liguria, Piedmont, but especially Sardinia
12. Cabernet Franc (just watch the weight and ABV! Loire is best!)
