Hello Flower,

Rieslings have a tendency to be sweet yet the key to them is the finish. If you like a dryer finish (which I'm assuming because you like reds) then I would go for the Rieslings from Alsace, France. Any reputable wine store, including plazacellars should have them.

Another really nice wine in summer is a bordeaux blanc. This is usually sauvignon blanc and semillon. Really, really good. Not too sweet, not too dry. Also if you can find wines from the Rhone that have Viognier, Marsanne and Roussane in them. Again, retailer will be able to direct you.

So many wines....so little time!

Let us know what you had and what you thought of them!
