August 2024
We all want summer to last forever, and with August just beginning it certainly feels like it can! We bring you two super fun wines that are wonderful for any and all occasion, as we squeeze out all the moments of long summer days we love: beach days, poolside hangs, long aperitivos with friends and family in our backyard, and all of our favorite summer produce. With a light and silky red from California, and a Chilean skin contact orange that sips like a crispy French sauv blanc, these August selections are sure to highlight the peak of summer as we savor all the wonderful moments it comes with. Cheers to summer!
Romi Orange, Echeverria: Sauvignon Blanc
We bring to you a Chilean sauvignon blanc beauty… from the Curicó Valley of central Chile, this 100% sauv blanc, organic, vegan, sustainably grown orange wine is as delicious to drink as its amber color is to look at. The golden color highlights its rosehips, honeysuckle aromas that pairs perfectly with these warm summer days we all love and enjoy. Its citrus notes combine perfectly with its stone-fruit finish to mimic our fabulous summer produce. Chill it, grab your favorite snacks, and drink with friends and family, just as the family behind its vineyard intended. This is an approachable orange wine to simply enjoy which picnicking at the beach, at the park, at an outdoor show, or simply while just hangin’ at home!
“Selects” Red Wine, Roni Selects x Fres Co.
Selects is a California collaboration with Roni Wines and their favorite winemaker of Fres Co. Drink this 75% Petite Syrah/25% Cortese with loved ones, and celebrate the simplicity of coming together with friends and family as we savor the warm moments of August sunshine. The balance of the skin contact cortese with the light, quickly pressed petite syrah offers a light, easy drinker with the perfect dry finish, as smooth as velvet. This chillable red is the perfect wine to drink with friends in the sunshine and the perfect addition to a freshly grilled piece of fish or chicken, or pairing with your favorite cookies at the end of a long summer’s day. Easy, crushable, chuggable, this truly is the wine to go with any and all occasions!
