    Honestly my go to wine has been cafe zinfandel. I’ve had moscatos, rieslings, pino Grigio, pino gris, & pino noir but I feel without the right pair those wines never really fit for me. With cafe Zinfandel I can just sit back with a meal, snack, or just a glass and enjoy it! Would love to learn more about drinking other varieties of wines!

    I mostly drink red wine. However , if it’s warm and we are camping or otherwise outdoors – a cold white or sparkling wine hits the spot!

    A good dry French rosé is always my go to wine particularly with the hot Texas summers.

    I’ve just started drinking wine a few months ago, and so far, white is my wine of choice.
