Summer White Wines


It's important to not only have your favorite summer whites in regards to clothing, but with wine as well. I'm typically a red wine type of gal, but during the summer months, white wine is much more refreshing and pairs nicely with so many light dishes. From left to right are a few of my favorites:

Cotes de Provence Rosé found at Trader Joe's is my go-to summer staple. We usually have at least one bottle in our wine cooler at all times, and it's always sad when the store's shipments run out - a true sign summer has officially ended.

Chateau St. Michelle Chardonnay is another chilled white I can find  at any grocery store or restaurant. When I can't find another interesting white to try, this one can usually be found in my basket. It goes great with some fantastic cheese boards my husband puts together and is a crowd pleaser when we have company.

J Pinot Gris is described as "crisp, with bright fruit and a kiss of mineral," which fits perfectly, however I like to think of it as my "fancy wine." The bottle is sleek and minimalistic and the taste is just as elegant.  

Cupcake Winery Sauvignon Blanc is a white I like to drink with my girls while watching episodes of The Bachelor and snacking on treats. Their wines are usually pretty fruit forward but not too sweet and this sauv blanc is no exception. Always a winner in my book!

Gnarly Head Authentic White is a smooth, white blend you can enjoy anytime, anywhere. It's complex enough with the different grapes used and can be paired with anything from a fresh salad, to seafood.
