Oregon, USA $15
If you’re anything like our staff, you’ve been drinking a lot of Oktoberfest beer lately. Switch things up by throwing a white wine into the mix. Who said you have to pack away the whites with your flip-flops and bathing suit?
The 2007 Wine By Joe Pinot Gris rocks more body (closer to whole milk than skim milk) than your typical white and throws in cool floral notes. This Oregon Pinot Gris has clean flavors of green apple and pears while maintaining a bright acidity.
Not only does this wine taste delicious in the middle of the day but it also goes surprisingly well with football-fare, like nachos, pizza and hot wings. Break barriers with your buddies by cracking a few bottles during the game on Sundays.
But this wine doesn’t just stop at ballgames. It’s a go-to fall favorite that is a great accompaniment to apple picking, fall foliage and your new scarf.
Drink liberally with chicken pot pie, grilled cheese or shredded yak & vegetable soup
