FOR YOUR SUMMER ENTERTAINING: A WINE PARTY

We all look for interesting and unusual party themes. Tu a casual outdoor party into a chic affair by having a wine party!

· Keep it simple but elegant
Your décor is important, since it will set the mood. It should be festive, yet natural and simple. Pick colors based on the outdoors, greens and earthy colors are always a nice combination. Add a splash of color by using flowers and plants from the garden.
Hanging lantes are a wonderful way to provide soft light. Huge umbrellas are a must to set a cozy mood. And dont forget the music for a friendly ambiance.

· Plates, bowls and eating utensils

Pinot Grigio complements light fish, seafood, poultry and vegetables well.
Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc go well with seafood, fish and white meat.

Serving summer wine cocktails, rosé wines would also be a refreshing way to keep your guests cool on a hot summer Air Cooler Manufacturers day.
