Past sounding fresher and more spirited with crisper lyrics, deeper grooves and more beats to dance to, this newer, more modern-style sound can also connect today&#8217;s youth with the song and the slightly older music lovers who have fond memories of dancing to this festive musical anthem when it was played at beach parties, dances, and smaller, more intimate summer events four decades ago.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To keep the cool vibes flowing with wine, this dazzling new release of the Tablas Creek 2021 Patelin de Tablas Blanc is bright, clean, and refreshing white wine crafted at Tablas Creek Winery in the coastal zone of Paso Robles in California.

It opens with the dreamscape piano of Chopin&#8217;s &#8220;Andanta Spianato et Grande Polonaise,&#8221; hearkening summery skies and wispy clouds drifting by before morphing towards dramatic, passionate cello and vocals. Gramona&#8217;s Gessam\u00ed Blanco matches it beautifully; from the heady summer florals of jasmine and neroli to the dashes of spice and fruit. At only 11% abv, it&#8217;s also perfect for enjoying while lingering on your favorite seaside terrace as you watch the shimmering waters and listen to the strains of Pink Martini in the background.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Greig Santos-Buch<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-16117\" src=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/greig-santos-buch-300x244.png\" alt=\"Greig Santos-Buch\" width=\"300\" height=\"244\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/greig-santos-buch-300x244.png 300w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/greig-santos-buch-310x252.png 310w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/greig-santos-buch.png 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Co-Founder, Winetraveler.com<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Wine:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Terras Gauda Albari\u00f1o, Loureiro, and Ca\u00ed\u00f1o Blanco Blend, R\u00edas Baixas, Spain<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Song:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8220;Raining at Sunset&#8221; by Chris Thile<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Greig Says:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> For me, summer and song are synonymous with the sea. Above the water is a vibrant atmosphere and vibe that makes me feel most alive and truly in the moment. Beneath the surface is a completely different world just waiting to be explored, hinting to my soul that life&#8217;s intricacies are truly endless.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Terras Gauda flagship blend of 70% Albari\u00f1o, 18% Loureiro and 12% Ca\u00ed\u00f1o Blanco hails from a region with a deep connection to the sea and a coastal lifestyle, <strong><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/spain\/rias-baixas-wine-region-visit-galicia\/\" target=\"_blank\">R\u00edas Baixas<\/a><\/strong>. This deeply complex wine is as vibrant, intricate, and varied as all of the colors and species found in the ocean. Each sip encourages you to dive deeper, not being fully sure of how the next sip or sniff will evolve in nuance, while providing an exciting level of quality that doesn&#8217;t diminish. A vibrant acidity and hint of salinity specific to the Galician coast drive the core of this wine, backed by well-rounded citrus fruit, juicy melon, and orange rind. A luscious yet incredibly approachable texture is present across every sip with an impressively long finish.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I chose &#8220;Raining at Sunset&#8221; by Chris Thile as my ideal wine pairing for this wine. This purely instrumental, string-based masterpiece is intricate and elegantly evolutionary like the wine. It&#8217;s immersive and winding, much like the sea, which despite its power, puts me in a completely relaxed state of mind. The song evokes nostalgia for me, bringing back memories of being dockside while the sun sets with rain gently falling around me.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Ana Fabiano<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-16116\" src=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ana1-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"Ana Fabiano\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ana1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ana1.jpg 213w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Principal, SANA Group, Rioja Expert, Award Winning Author of The Wine Region of Rioja<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Wine:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Finca de la Villa White 2020, Bodegas Muriel, 100% Viura, Rioja Alavesa, Spain<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Song:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8220;Bittersweet Symphony&#8221; by The Verve<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Ana says:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This song has been in my playlist for decades as it is timeless like many Riojas.

Transitions also happen in a glass of wine, but in this Muriel, they are with great summer ease. Much like Javier Murua.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This white Muriel has a gleaming pale straw yellow color and aromatics of green apple, Anjou pear, sea grass, and minerality with some crushed seashells easily escorted to the palate. Viura of Rioja is tricky and has different expressions and is often linear. However, this brilliant 100% Rioja Alavesa Viura Muriel is rounded off with a hint of barrel fermentation and aging that delivers lovely roundness on the palate with \u201csymphonic\u201d balance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I LOVE this because I can definitely sip and swig it solo, in a hammock.

We travel the world for wine and we are always fascinated by the grapes grown in select regions in the US. This trip we learned firstly that they make wine in Utah and secondly that in the hot climates of Arizona and Southern Utah the thematic white wine grape is Malvasia Bianca. You can find this grape at most vineyards within these regions. This is also when we were driving our pick-up truck throughout this hot arid region and \u201c7 Summers\u201d kept playing, which then became our trip\u2019s theme song. And thus, drinking Malvasia Bianca on the hallucination-inducing hot roads of Southern Utah with a seven-month-pregnant woman listen to Morgan Wallen\u2019s \u201c7 Summers\u201d became immortalized.
