All-American Wines To Celebrate the Fourth of July
Memories of running around my backyard with sparklers in hand as fireworks explode in the night’s sky always bring a smile to my face. Now the sparklers are for my children, I prefer sparkling glasses of fine white and red wine to celebrate Independence Day! Join me in toasting our country this Fourth of July weekend with some of the best and most affordable whites and reds available. Here are my picks for this holiday and any summer gathering with friends and family!
