Need a great summer wine for the BBQ or for the deck? Look no further than this great Rose from Greece. Its available now at most Whole Foods and will only set you back $12.99. This wine is a bit more full bodied than your typical rose so it can stand up to heavier foods making it perfect for almost anything you pull off the BBQ this summer. It is made from the Xinomavro grape, a grape only grown in Greece and rarely seen here in the US. For more information check out Kiryianni. If you are in Seattle you can also find this wine currently on the wine list at Bricco on the top of Queen Anne, which was also just named one of the best wine bars in the United States!
