Which Augustan wine means "summer" to you?

The Closel Jalousie Savennieres - it has all the concentration of the classic 2005 vintage without losing its minerality.
– Connie Mields-Perry, Director of Administration

Auratus Alvarinho, with its tropical nose and refreshing minerality - perfect with shellfish!
– John Allport, Orlando Portfolio Specialist

The Bonny Doon Muscat...it's just so easy-drinking and approachable, and pairs great with all sorts of summertime meals.
— Craig Elliott, Ft. Lauderdale Portfolio Specialist

Pazo Pondal Albarino reminds me of consuming vast amounts of fresh seafood on the beach.
— Brian Kerney, Marketing Specialist

Chehalem INOX because it's crisp and clean while still rich...a very versatile wine for the summer.
— Ben Carson, General Sales Manager

Calera Chard, Isabel Sauvignon Blanc, Jaffurs Viognier...do I have to pick just one?!
- Tish Sawyer, Palm Beach Portfolio Specialist

Definitely the Chehalem Ian's Reserve Chardonnay - it's very well-balanced...really a perfect wine!
- Beth Opalenik, Sales Administrator

I like the Quinta do Dorado, because along with its great freshness, it's quite a bit fleshier than your standard summertime quaffer.
- Proal Perry, Managing Director

The Larmandier-Bernier Champagnes - because I'm celebrating my marriage this summer!
- Carolyn Corey, Domestic Portfolio Manager
