Fernando's Picks

Thanksgiving Picks

Have you ever tried an Austrian wine before? Did you know that their history with wine dates back to over 2000 years ago? If you didn’t then please do yourself a favour and pick up a bottle of Gruner Veltliner (white), or for this pick, Zweigelt (red). This will be your assignment for the month. 

You can tell me about the crunchy red fruit and spice qualities of this medium bodied wine, as well how well it paired with all of your meals. You can also ask me about my recent trip to Vienna because goodness knows I haven’t talked about it enough yet. 

Prost!
