The Wine Pig

As the weather turns warmer, many of us turn to anything within reason to stave off the heat of summer. I am no different. This week, my Bordeauxs are staying on the shelf and I will be drinking this beautiful Albarino from Martin Codax (maker of the ever popular Burgans Albarino). Bright, crisp, refreshing and bursting with citrus flavors, this is a wine to cool even the hottest of Alabama Summers.

I LOVE this wine, it is everything that Washington State Merlot should be. Lush, complex, soft, silky and not so over-extracted as to discourage having a second glass. With the Merlot market on a down trend, now is the perfect time to get incredible value for your money, and this wine is no exception!
