Hi! It's super summery here in Minnesota. Wishing you a warm and adventure-filled weekend!

FRIDAY FAVES - 6.17.22

- Have you heard that Airbnb added a "vineyards" category to their accomodations? Time to take that wine country vacation!

- Yes, I DO want to make sheet pan pancakes!

- In the spirit of ice cream season, I re-watched this adorable episode of Gourmet Makes with Claire Saffitz from Bon Appétit.

- Did you know we sell canned wine?! It's so very perfect for summer picnics and beach days! Try this Sangiovese and this rosé from Broc Cellars.

- Let's all make this salad this summer, ok? It would taste great with a glass of this Spanish Garnacha.

Til next time!

3 Wines We're Loving in February

Today is National Drink Wine Day! But let's be real. Over here, EVERY day is Drink Wine Day. So while this—ahem—holiday doesn't change much for the crew at Sip Better, it does give us an awfully nice excuse to highlight some of the wines we're currently loving. These three wines are peppy and fun, great for lifting your spirits up and out of the dregs of winter. All three are also wonderful food wines, so don't be afraid to mix and match them with whatever cozy foods you're digging into these days. 

Enjoy!

Then they ferment the grapes whole and uncrushed (in bunches!) inside of sealed tanks (that's called Carbonic Fermentation). This method tames the more tannic side of Sangiovese and produces a wine popping with sour cherry and berry...
