Reds on Ice
Improbable but true, you will not be considered gauche to take a chilled red to your next féte. Legitimized by the paper of record, the New York Times reports there’s a new drink on the summer scene that will cool both your evenings and archaic attitudes.
“Cold, cool, brisk, whatever you want to call it, we are going to enjoy red wine at a temperature that refreshes, restores and revitalizes even the most exhausted soul. [...] Possibilities abound, like a frappato from Sicily, ruby red and full of fruit. Dare I mention merlot? Especially the herbal, earthy merlots from the Italian region of Friuli-Venezia Giulia?” Heresy – no more. Red on Ice. The updated Summer Cooler. Think about it.
