Summer is the time for light dishes for meals and also for amazing wines to sip with those light dishes. Callie Collection Wines is a great brand to share with friends and family with 3 varietals to try out: Chardonnay, Fresh Red Blend and also Pinot Grigio.
Fresh Red Blend
Chardonnay
Disclosure: The brand provided me with two wines for me to test out. This post is about the Pinot Grigio
Review:
I would recommend this Pinot Grigio for just about anything you are cooking this summer. It’s light with bright flavors and super-easy to sip. To me, this wine tastes like early summer, when you want to sit around with friends watching the sun go down. The easy-to-use resealable cork makes this wine and the entire Callie Collection of wines, worth buying because storing any remaining wine after it’s been opened is a snap! It’s definitely a winner varietal in my house!
Refreshing and delicious, Callie Collection’s Summer Pea Tartine recipe is an easy-to-create, satisfying dish that will keep your taste buds happy and cool wherever you are. Whether going to a bbq, a boat party or out on a picnic, the Pea Tartine is fast, easy and very tasty.
The Callie Collection Pinot Grigio is the perfect pour to accompany the dish, with ripe melon, mineral and citrus flavors – a refreshing way to enjoy the warm weather.
