🎧Italian Wine Adventure #26: Schiava! Sommeliers Love This Chillable Red!
Chillable red wines are a thing right now, and we think we may have found the perfect chillable red wine for you to not only enjoy but wow your hipster friends, family, and coworkers with. In fact, this wine is becoming a darling of in-the-know sommeliers! Schiava comes from the Alto Adige region of Italy, and it has everything you are looking for in a chillable red wine: crunchy red fruit flavors, light body, low tannins, and moderate alcohol. And while the wine is sometimes called “weightless” don’t confuse that with being bland or boring, because it is anything but that. Look, you are not going to drink this wine with a big steak, but there’s more to life than big steaks, right?!? Sometimes also called Trollinger and Vernatsch, this is the perfect wine for a summer afternoon, for appetizers and charcuterie, poultry, spicy and sweet barbecue, and, yes, even fish. Red wine and fish?!? Crazy, but true. Often called the white wine drinker’s red wine, Schiava is a wine you need to know,

Where the Towers Meet the Vines: Panizzi Vernaccia di San Gimignano
Vernaccia di San Gimignano was one of my first white wines of Italy that I came to enjoy .   It also was Italy‘ s first DOC in 1966 an d is stil l Tu scany’s only white wine with the DOCG designation .  Let’s take a look at this quaint Tus can town and the Panizz i winery, which is the focus of today’s tasting.     All About San Gimignano   I find It's easier to relate to something when you have visited the area from which something originates from .   I have always loved the medieval tower driven, walled town of San Gimignano set in the Siena province of northwest Tuscany .  It’s also a UNESCO World Heritage site with its 14 medieval towers that still remain that were once built by 13 th century rival noble families where height ruled .   It’s such a great town to explore whether you stay over or make it one of your stops while you’re touring the Tuscan countryside .   Just make sure to sit back and have a glass of their Vernaccia

A Tour of Wine Grapes: Roussanne
Roussanne 🥂 Photo by Carlos the Great on Wikimedia Commons Roussanne ( rooh-sahn ) is native to the Rhône Valley in Southern France. Experts first wrote about it in the late 1700s in the Hermitage region. Today, it is still a major grape in famous French wines like Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Hermitage, where winemakers often blend it with Marsanne to balance its flavors. Outside of France, Roussanne has found a popular second home in California, particularly along the Central Coast. Winemakers also grow smaller amounts of this grape in Washington State, Australia, and Tuscany, Italy. The grape gets its name from "roussille," which is the French word for the reddish-gold or russet color the berries turn right before they are harvested. Wines made from Roussanne are famous for their intense and unique smells. When you take a sip, you will often smell herbal tea, wildflowers, pears, and white peaches. As the wine ages, it starts to smell like nutty almond paste and warm honey. On the palate
