EZ Rock Wedding Wines
Hosting a wedding is a wonderful, exciting and daunting task. It is a big day that everyone involved wants a success! We cannot control the weather, but we can control the wine!
Wine served at the dinner table usually consists of a white and a red. After the table pours their selection, a casting of eyes to other tables usually ensues. The people are usually looking for the table that has extra reds, the preferred wine. A good rule for wine at the table is two reds and one white or half a bottle per person. This is only two glasses each.
Here are some good quality wines that would be easy to please. All are around $15.00.
Trapiche, Malbec. Canada loves this wine. It is from, Mendoza, Argentina. Malbec is a soft, fruit forward, low tannin grape that makes big juicy wine.
Banrock Station, Shiraz. Australian wines have maintained quality and dropped prices. This is a great wine. Soft and smooth. Look at this one pairing easily with a range of food.
Inniskillin, Ontairo, Chardonnay. This cool climate Chardonnay has a touch of oak, but is not swimming in it. It is complex and elegant. Enjoy without breaking the bank.
Gehringer Brothers, Ehrenfelser. Yes this is an odd sounding grape, but when there is a tasting event in town, this is the favorite. It has a huge fruity taste that works with food. It is so delicious, I cannot say enough about it! This isn’t a complex wine, but simply darn easy to sip!
