The hot days down under aren’t done with just yet. And vintage, when vineyards are picking their grapes, is in full force too. With both those things going on at once we look at a sparkling wine from Blue Pyrenees which is picked in the cool of the night to make sure they get the best from their grapes. We also look at a super bargain priced Rosé from Angoves, and a classic quaffer from Pepperjack perfect for matching with lamb on the BBQ.

Bean Salad you ask – yes, Tuscan Bean salad at that. Artichokes, Alfonso Olives, Kalamata Olives, fresh garlic, white beans, colorful sweet peppers, feta cheese, olive oil, fresh lemons, fresh herbs, cage free chicken; all the accoutrement needed for the task of making this lovely, colorful, healthy dish. The ingredients remind me of the assorted foods found at plaza markets in Tuscan towns. Unbelievably simple and quick to prepare, this dish can be the star of the meal or a lovely accompaniment to heavier dishes; such as veal chops. Paired with your favorite white wine or sparkling beverage, it's a sure bet for summer. A note on the Alfonso Olives, if you have not had them, you must! They are marinated in Red Wine and Red Wine Vinegar. Their applications are endless – think sauces, etc.

A finely-structured vintage sparkling wine from the Loire Valley, this elegant cuvée shows ripe, balanced white fruit flavors marked by nuances of Chardonnay ending in a crisp, toasty subtly complex finish.
