For those of you who know me or frequent the winery and our summer impromptu lunch parties this will come as no surprise… I love Rose as a summer sipper and realy think there’s nothing better than hangin round outside by the pool (which I don’t have- tho we do have a hose) with a chilled glass full of light raspberry and strawberry flavors. Yum!
But I have a new love called Verdelho that’s makin’ its way to a store shelf near you. Now I can already hear y’all ask “What the *#$@ is Verdelho? Well its a white wine from- you guessed it- Spain and its sorta like an exotic Sauvignon Blanc without the grass. Think mangos and melons and tart acidity. Molydooker of The Boxer fame makes one called the Violinist and Scholium Project’s Naucratis is quite possibly one of the most intriguing wines to cross my lips this year.
I’m from Napa and would like to try your wine some time.
