It may not officially be summer yet, but it sure does feel like it! I don’t know about you, but I’m ready to wine down (see what I did there!?) and fully enjoy the season!
If you’re looking for fun ways to enjoy wine this summer, then this post was made just for you!
FUN WAYS TO ENJOY WINE THIS SUMMER
Throw A Wine Tasting Party
One of the most fun ways to enjoy wine is with a wine tasting party! This summer, round up a group of your friends, have each person bring a bottle, then set up a serving line to sample each one! Want to make it interesting!? Do a blind tasting, write down your guess as to which type of wine it is, then have a vote on which one is your favorite!
Wine recommendation: Give Faustino VII wine a try! My favorites are Faustino VII Rosé for an intense red fruit aroma with a medium finish, Faustino VII Red Wine for touches of ripe red fruits, and Faustino VII White for pear, apple, herbal and herbaceous hints. Faustino has more than 150 years of winemaking, crafting Spain’s most iconic wines!
Make A Charcuterie Wine and Cheese Board
Create a charcuterie board with your favorite wine and cheese pairings for a perfect summer evening! This is great for a picnic, date night, some “me” time, or a girl’s night in!
Try A New Recipe Using Wine
Do you love cooking and wine? If so, why not combine the two!? Some of the best seafood pasta is made with white wine as a sauce base, so go on and get creative in the kitchen if you’re a foodie! PS- Try a white wine cream sauce with linguine and bay scallops! Yum!
Create A Wine Cocktail
Frosé anyone!? Wine is great as it is, but let’s be honest, who wouldn’t love a frozen rosé slushie!? For those hot summer days, you’ll be glad you made one! Grab a bottle of Faustino VII Rosé, a little bit of sugar, ice, and a blender and you’re all set!

I live right in the middle of Virginia wine country, so I’m looking forward to visiting lots of wineries this summer as the weather continues to get nicer! 🙂

My roommates and I did a few “wine and cheese” nights during college and it was so much fun. I love that you get to sample a lot of different foods all in one place!
