When the Weather Is Hot, Do You Drink Red Wine?

June 24, 2010

When we were in Aspen for the Food & Wine Classic, the weather was absolutely gorgeous. It was so warm that I didn't really taste much red wine; all I craved were refreshingly chilled whites. That's when I realized: when the weather is hot, I rarely drink reds. How about you?

I drink less red in the summer months. But This early summer I am really in love with Italian reds.

I never drink reds anyway, but especially not in the summer...they make my face really red and hot. Not a good thing for the summer!

Yes, but much less. Maybe with dinner or so.

I love reds, no matter what time of year. I usually drink a glass of ice water with wine in the summer.

I drink whatever I am in the mood for... so if its red, I'll still drink it. But, I definitely go for more whites as it heats up. They can be so much more refreshing.
