Cold weather means cold water, which means great oysters! A couple weeks back I picked up a bottle of Casal Garcia Vinho Verde to have with some local farmed oysters. The wine is light, citrusy (sp?), has a little spritz and was the perfect match for good icy and briney oysters on the half shell. (It is low alcohol at 10%) Best yet, I got the wine in the 2 for $10 bins at the local wine shop. (United Liquors front-line price is $50cs. and nets to $45.) A wine such as this has very limited appeal in cold weather, but with the right food, it doesn't matter that snow is in the air. Try it, I know you'll like it! What are you enjoying these days?
