Tintero Vino Bianco Grangia

Let’s talk about summer wines, I’ve made it pretty clear that I reach for sparkling anytime of year and summertime is no different. This week I met a friend at Tom Douglas’ Seatown near Pike Place for dinner. After perusing the wine list I noticed a by the glass called Grangia, next to it the notes said lightly sparkling, crisp. Yes, please!

First sip- apple, sparkling, oh my!

A blend of Chardonnay, Favorita, Ameis, and a bit of moscato grapes from the Puedmont region in Italy.

Just be careful, Grangia goes down easy!
