HOUSTON – Hi everyone and happy Wine Club Wednesday, Poured by H‑E‑B! It’s Derrick Shore!
Today, we are happy to meet Wine Club members and mother/daughter duo Carol and Katy from the River Oaks area. Carol has lived all over the place (her father worked in the oil business) and she worked for St. Martin’s Church for 23 years. Katy is a Covid ICU nurse at Houston Methodist and is a proud Texas Longhorn like her Mom! Both of these hard working ladies deserve a drink, so today we’re tasting two delicious white wines that are perfect for these hot, humid summer days!
First up, the Finca El Origen Torrontes with a jaw-dropping price of just $9. Torrontes is a white grape from Argentina, and this particular winery is in the foothills of the Andes Mountains, more than 3,200 feet above sea level. It’s a dry white wine with medium acidity and it pairs well with spicy foods…
