You also get a sneak peek into how Samantha set me up with my boyfriend Cris, so it’s an episode you don’t want to miss! Listen now and don’t forget to hit subscribe so that you never miss an episode! ———— Episode Show notes: Great poolside sippers for wine this summer: Rosè: look for lighter colored dry rosè (sugar isn’t quite as refreshing on a hot day, so i usually stay away from sweeter options!) Try one of these: Bertrand Cotes de Rose, Chateau de La Noblesse Rose from Bandol, and Sonoma Cutrer White: I love white wines that are light, crisp, and acidic in the hot summer. So Sauvignon blanc and Albariño are two top picks! Try one of the below wines: Martin Codax Albariño, Burgans Albariño, or Licia Albariño Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc (A classic New Zealand SB), Domaine Fournier Sancerre (Sancerre is from France and delicious Sauvignon Blanc!), and Duckhorn SB from California Red: lighter red wines can be a good option on a cooler evening or if you chill the bottle more than normal (45-50F degrees). Look for Gamay, Pinot Noir, from the U.S., or even a Lambrusco. Bubbles: you can’t beat cava. This inexpensive Spanish sparkling wine is made in the same method as champagne for a fraction of the cost! Try one of my favorites below: Villa Conchi Cava Brut, Campo Viejo, or Borrasca If you want to learn more about canned wines, check out my episode #18 HERE. Tips for poolside wines: Temperatures: A large corkcicle or thermos is great to keep wines cold by the pool! (Keep in mind that a normal sized bottle of wine is 750mL or 25oz.) Don’t add ice or this will water down your wine! Pour wine in small amounts into your glass because the wine will warm up faster in your glass than in the corkcicle. Glassware: If you can’t bring glass to your pool, invest in small insulated thermos cups from corkcicle, yeti, or another company. I love my Rifle Paper Co one HERE. You can also try these plastic reusable stemmed wine glasses that look like real glass from Amazon (I love them and they are great quality!!). I hope today’s episode was helpful! Please write a review if you learned something new and don’t forget to tell your friends about the show!
