Sweep the porch, clean the grill and chill those white wines – summer is coming! As spring gives way to the summer heat, life’s most precious moments migrate outdoors. From July 4th to family reunions, barbeques to weddings, the right wine can make a casual event shine, and a more formal affair sparkle. Let’s pop open some wines and celebrate the start of the season in style.
4 Simple Steps to Better Your Barbeque:
1 – Go a little exotic with Filipino Spiced Barbecued Chicken, Jalapeno & Curry-spiked Deviled Eggs, and Grilled Romaine with Fresh Ginger Dressing.
2 – This is a doubly delicious porch pounder idea: pair your fave WineShop At Home wines with icy fruit popsicles to cool them down.
3 – Make your outdoor space inviting with a red & white tablecloth and outdoor lighting.
4 – Be sure to chill your white & rose wines nearby until you’re just about ready to serve.
Perfect Pairings:
- The Revel 2013 California Vin Rouge, like most Rosés, is designed around pure enjoyment for casual moments.
- The sweet, citrusy Homage Cellars 2012 California Muscat pairs well with summer desserts like cherry pie or s’mores.
