Wines for Summer

Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely adore chardonnay, but there are over 10,000 grape varieties in the world and we are generally only consuming about fifteen of them (i.e. chardonnay, cabernet sauvignon, pinot grigio, merlot, etc.). With beautiful white varieties like vermentino, viognier and gewürztraminer, and smooth reds like montepulciano, tempranillo, and cinsault, the summer just got more interesting!
