We know this summer has been HOT, so join us for a refreshing escape from the Florida summer with our latest edition of Take Flight Tastings — Beat the Heat, facilitated by the ever-wonderful Caitlin from Tuscany Distributors! This lineup is designed for sipping under the sun and unwinding in the shade — perfect for poolside lounging, boatside breezes, beach picnics, or lazy afternoons on the porch. Expect a mix of crisp, chilled, and totally crushable wines (plus a bonus non-alcoholic sparkling tea!) that will keep you cool no matter how high the temps climb. ☀️🍷
Here’s what’s on deck:
🍇 Feudi Salentini “Marpiccolo” Fiano Salento 2024, Basilicata, Italy – bright, floral, and zippy with Mediterranean vibes in every sip.
🌼 Girasol Vineyards Pinot Blanc 2023, Mendocino, California– soft and citrusy with a whisper of melon; basically, sunshine in a glass.
🍊 Colliano Orange Wine 2021, Croatia – for the adventurous sipper; bold, textured, and beautifully aromatic.
🌸 Martin Estate Rosé of Cabernet 2023, Napa Valley, California – dry, punchy, and ready to make you forget it’s 95 degrees out.
🍷 Casina D’Or Dolcetto d’Alba, Piedmont, California – light red, chillable, and juicy enough to drink all summer long.
🌿 Primrose Trail Grand Reserve Pinot Noir 2017, Sonoma Coast, California– silky, balanced, and surprisingly perfect with grilled fare on the patio.
🍓 Rosello Brachetto NV, Piedmont, Italy – gently sparkling and full of red berry sweetness—dessert or aperitif? You decide.
🍵 Copenhagen Sparkling Tea (non-alcoholic), Copenhagen, Denmark – zero proof, 100% sophisticated refreshment.
These libations hail from Italy, Slovenia, California, France, and even Denmark—with each bottle proving that summer heat calls for crisp whites, chillable reds, refreshing rosés, and lightly sparkling sippers. Whether you’re lounging poolside, boatside, beachside, or porchside, these are made for warm-weather enjoyment. Come cool down and taste your way through this heatwave-friendly lineup!
