Sutter Home Wines

When it’s summer time, I think of colorful parties outside. And you know, I love doing a Gran Fiesta, so I am always trying out new recipes, to make my parties unique. This time, I want to talk a little bit about Sutter Home Family Vineyard wines, as they are the perfect wine to bring my friends together and enjoy a great time.  Lately,  I have been into crafty cocktails, they tend to be yummy and fancy looking, and they can be garnish with sweet frutas or fragant flores like I did here. So I wanted to share a recipe with you, of my version of a Girly Gimlet cocktail using  Sutter Home Family Vineyard Wines.

Sutter Home is a california 65 year old family owned wine company, that has won over 350 gold medal with their wines. They have a wide variety of wines for everyone, including whites, reds and blush.  A few of my Sutter Home favorites are the White Zinfandel, the  Sauvignon Blanc, the Pinot Grigio, the Cabernet Sauvignon and the Red blend. Also they are very affordable! So go ahead  stock up and enjoy a Sutter Home by itself or try out my recipe below at our next Summer party and let me know what you think!
