Hello to you! I love springtime – it is the season of daffodils, tulips and crocuses. The spring seems to have a special way of getting us out of our winter hibernation as it turns our faces up toward the sunshine. Now that spring is here – I have two fun wines to tell you about to kick off the season…
- Mountain Fish Peloponnese PGI, Greece 2014 – made with 100% Agiorgitiko, this is an enticing glass of red wine. It is rugged and rustic with deep berry flavours, a good dose of dried herbs and a nice lingering, spicy finish. This wine wants to be paired with food – I suggest a pork tenderloin with a cherry pepper glaze. Try something new, get out of your comfort zone and pick up a bottle of Mountain Fish at your BCLDB for $18.99.
- White Dot Peloponnese PGI, Greece 2015 – a pretty blend of Moschofilero and Roditis, this charming Greek wine will soon become one of your ‘go-to’ wines for outside entertaining. Bursting with lush orchard fruit flavours like apricots and apples, this wine has a delicate floral note and a refreshing finish – such a charmer! Pair it with a patio, sunshine and good friends. Currently available through the lovely ladies at AmoVino – click here to connect.
Thank you for reading – have a great week!
