New Year’s Eve – That time of year, when we kick out the old year and look forward to starting afresh the next year.

But what to drink? That’s the question.

Well, wine makes the perfect drink for New Year’s Eve.

• Beer? Too heavy.
• Spirits? Too strong.
• Wine makes a great choice here.

Start the evening off with some Light Wines

Dungeness White Riesling, 2019 a light, crisp, semi-sweet Riesling.

Riesling has always been a great wine to enjoy if you are looking for something refreshing to sip, and keep down the alcohol intake.

This pale golden wine, is a taste basket full of honey and green candy aromas, cotton candy, melon. Sweet and tart in the mouth with flavors of green apple, pears, and peaches. Making a fresh and light toast for the early evening.

Another great light wine, this time for red wine drinkers.

Rose’ The Riveter, 2018 is solidly rooted in as delicious Lemberger varietal.  Dark pink in color. Fresh tasting, flavorful and fruity. This slightly sweet wine tastes of
fresh strawberries and is the perfect choice for an early evening sipping wine on New Year’s Eve.

This one does not disappoint, thanks to all of the classic Lemberger character.

And for when the Ball Drops in the Big Apple – Raise a toast and offer the new years first kiss over a glass of My Sweet Syrah – A Sweeter Style Red, this is our signature blend of Syrah and Late Harvest Riesling.

This wine is a bit lighter than a varietal Syrah, lush and semi-sweet (3.5% residual sugar). Bright fruit sumptuous and smooth. A beautiful dessert wine or just for sipping. And it’s dangerous with dark chocolate.
“The sweetness of the wine lingers on your lips like a first kiss”.
