For the wine drinker who loves the beach: New Harbor

This New Zealand wine is crisp with grapefruit, lemon and lime zest shining through. Perfect for a hot summer day by the ocean, the Sauvignon Blanc will immerse you in the smells and tastes of summer.

For the mountain men and women: Snap Dragon

The tent is set up, the fishing rods are cast and it’s time to snap open some wine that will pair with burgers. Although there might be bear and deer afoot, there’s no need to fear this dragon in the woods – he’s the friendliest, most approachable dragon you’ll ever meet.
