All of those memes you’ve seen circulating around the interwebs about moms needs coffee and wine to operate, they’re funny but so very true. And with the kids home for summer and all semblance of the schedule you live by 3/4 of the year gone, it’s even more accurate.

Most of the year, I identify as a red wine drinker. Pinot Noir, Cab, Merlot…I love them all. It’s not chilled and there’s something about the flavor and temperature that’s relaxing and zen.

Yet in summer when the temps and humidity rise, a chilled varietal becomes my flavor of choice. I’ve never been a fan of sweet wines. In fact, even as a newly legal wine drinker I teased my mom so much about her love of White Zinfandel and it being the Kool-Aid of wines that she made the transition to Rieslings so it was a little more acceptable. But not much.

When I think of summer, I think of dry, white wines. Over the years, I’ve grown to appreciate most of the popular varietals like Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon Blanc but I usually gravitate back to my first love…Chardonnay.

I’ve dabbled across the board with different brands, but I always return to my favorite…Maison Louis Jadot. I don’t consider myself a wine snob or someone with a particularly large budget, but the Mâcon-Villages Chardonnay provides a really great bang for my buck. Jadot is the number one brand of French wine in the U.S. and with good reason. It’s fresh, flavorful, and so refreshing for summer.

Most of the time, I either enjoy a glass on its own or with a meal but this past weekend I decided to shake things up from the norm and do a tapas style lunch for my husband and our guests.

An easy crostini is my go-to appetizer for something that’s delicious and very versatile. They’re perfect because you can easily mix and match toppings to pair with a variety of wines and to satisfy an array of palettes.

The easy crostini recipe in this post features goat cheese (aka chèvre), prosciutto, fresh peaches, a balsamic vinegar reduction, and cracked black pepper. The balsamic vinegar reduction really ties all of the flavors together, so I’d urge you not to skip this step.

Can you eat peach skin?

Yes, you can eat peach skin. Make sure that you wash the peach before eating to remove any pesticides from the skin. Peach skin is higher in fiber and antioxidants than peach flesh.

What does goat cheese taste like?

The taste of goat cheese can vary from brand to brand. The flavor ranges from tart to soft and has a tangy, earthy flavor, that pairs well with a variety of other foods.
