    Wine Exploration – Casal Garcia a Great Patio Pounder

    /3 Comments

    It’s a Wine Up Wednesday and for this wine exploration, we are tasting Casal Garcia a great patio pounder! A Vinho Verde from northern Portugal! At the initial tasting of Casal Garcia Vinho Verde white wine, I found it is young, refreshing, and will most likely make you smile while you enjoy its light fruit notes and minerality. Have you ever had one of those moments, a quiet almost sneaky moment, when you are sitting in an idyllic setting, the world is right in your soul, and you just smile?

    I really think one of the best summer wines is Sauvignon Blanc. It just rings summer in a glass with its crisp, refreshing approach.
