SEASONAL

TAKE THE GUESSWORK OUT OF CHOOSING WHAT PRODUCTS TO HAVE ON HAND THIS TIME OF YEAR: FOR GIFTS, A POST-GARDENING SIP, THE FIRST BACKYARD BBQ OR ANY OTHER OCCASION.

MAKING A CASE

By James Chatto

Bottles and cans to have on hand for early summer entertaining—or for gifting with just the right add-on to give alongside.

Be prepared! That’s my motto this summer. Hence this mixed case of more than just vino. We have sophisticated wines and simpler ones, too, two versatile beers and two cocktails that are ready to pour. There’s even a couple of things you can’t drink—though they do fall into the larger game plan as excellent gifts if someone suddenly announces that it’s their birthday. It’s good to try fresh experiences and I hope some of these choices are new to you and that they meet with your approval. Let the summer begin!
