La Jara Pinot Grigio RosĂŠ
Veneto, Italy
From a family estate farming the same limestone and gravel soils since 1891, this wine reveals something most drinkers donât know: Pinot Grigio isnât a white grapeâit has a naturally pink skin. La Jara presses their certified organic grapes gently, allowing just enough skin contact to draw out a delicate blush before fermenting in tank to lock in freshness. Dry, crisp, and lively, with notes of strawberry, raspberry, rose petal, and creamâthis is the exact wine the cheese is soaked in!
Sancerre
Eastern Loire Valley, Sancerre, France
Perched on a chalk hill above the Loire River, Sancerre was Pinot Noir country until phylloxera devastated its vineyards in the 1860s. When growers replanted, they turned to Sauvignon Blancâand the worldâs most iconic expression of that grape was born. Its three distinct soilsâchalk, clay-limestone, and gunflintâeach leave their mark: bracingly dry and mineral, with vivid notes
of citrus, white peach, gooseberry, and a stony finish no other place quite
replicates.
Hefeweizen
Bavaria, Germany
A beer so beloved by Bavariaâs ruling Wittelsbach family that they bent the law to protect it. When the Reinheitsgebot of 1516 banned wheat from brewing, the Dukes created a royal exemptionâgranting a single monastery the exclusive right to brew it for centuries. The secret is the yeast: a unique
Bavarian strain that produces unmistakable aromas of ripe banana and clove, poured hazy and golden with a thick, creamy head.
Cold Brew Coffee
Your local coffee shop or kitchen!
In the early 1600s, Dutch traders solved a practical problemâopen fire was dangerous at seaâby steeping coffee in cold water to make a concentrate they could carry for months. When they brought the technique to Japan, it flourished into the elegant, drop-by-drop Kyoto-style brewing still practiced
today. Cold water unlocks a different chemistry entirely: no heat means no bitter acids, just smooth, full-bodied depth with notes of dark chocolate,
caramel, and toasted grain.
Hibiscus Tea
Sudan & West Africa
One of the oldest botanical infusions in the world, brewed from the dried crimson calyces of the roselle flower native to West Africa and Sudan. The ancient Egyptians served it chilled to their pharaohs; in Senegal it remains the national drink; in Mexico it became agua de Jamaica. Deep ruby-red in the cup, it delivers bold tart cranberry and hibiscus notes, a floral lift, and a clean, bright finish equally compelling hot or over ice.
