\"What<\/p>\n

For a lot of people in the nation, the Fourth of July is a moment to gather and celebrate. There are parades, barbeques, fireworks\u2014all the makings of a beautiful day. Many people use this day to sip on delicious cocktails and enjoy the sunshine, but many people also forget about how perfectly wine goes with this celebration. There may not be blue wine, but there\u2019s definitely enough red, white, and Ros\u00e9 to make up for it! Learn more about what wine to drink on July 4th<\/sup> below.<\/p>\n

Red: Zinfandel<\/h2>\n

If there\u2019s one red that people love to open on July 4th<\/sup>, it\u2019s Zinfandel. Though the grape holds its roots in Croatia or Italy, a lot of the Zinfandel we drink is exclusively American. There are so many wineries across the nation that create excellent bottle after excellent bottle of Zinfandel. Any Californian Zinfandel has the chops to blow your taste buds. If you\u2019re looking for a deep red for this holiday, then a bottle of this is the way to go.<\/p>\n

White: Vinho Verde<\/h2>\n

There are so many fantastic white wines for summer, but if you\u2019re going to drink all day, then you\u2019re going to want something refreshing. That\u2019s where the soft bubbles of Vinho Verde come into play. It has a lower alcohol percentage (typically around 10\u201311%) and can easily shift from afternoon to dinnertime wine. It\u2019s got a high acidity, light body, and bursts with a ton of citrusy flavors. Give it a try!<\/p>\n

Ros\u00e9: Sangiovese Ros\u00e9<\/h2>\n

As one of the ten perfect styles of Ros\u00e9<\/a>, Sangiovese Ros\u00e9 is a beautiful choice for the fourth of July. It\u2019s wonderful for a bright summer day\u2014the bright copper color shimmers in the light and will pair perfectly with a charcuterie board, chicken, and barbeque. It\u2019s versatile and, oh, so very delicious. You\u2019ll taste notes of fresh strawberries, roses, and yellow peach\u2014the best accent to your day!<\/p>\n
