Wine Swap

What better way to kick off the weekend than to share wine with friends and meet new people on a beautiful California rooftop! My apartment complex hosted a Wine Swap, on a Friday evening, for the residents to socialize and unwind after a busy week and long commutes. The best part was that it was free of charge and all we had to do was bring a bottle. They also provided a scrumptious cheese and charcuterie platter and desserts for us to indulge.  The vibe was open and inviting with no rules on how many pours or tasting order. We opened up what we wanted to sip and poured as much or as little as our hearts desired. I selected Pine & Post Riesling for the swap with it's aromatic notes of jasmine and lychee. Its very crisp and bright with flavors of apples and pears. One of my favorites of the evening was Stella & Rosa Moscato. The semi-sweet wine is a safe wine to bring to a swap because it's not overly sweet and Moscato is loved by all!
