Have you ever wished that your summer wines would just make you feel like you have been whisked away to a tropical island? Or that when you sipped your wine, that it actually tastes like what you are drinking. I have found a winery in Florida that makes wine from 100% fruit, such as mangos, pineapples, blueberries and so many more. . Their wine has very few tannins and only 1/4th the sulfites. So for all who suffer the next day headaches, here is a wine you may be able to enjoy. TropicalWineParty.com offers 31 flavors of wine, 3 sparkling wines and one Sherry. And they plan on adding more!

One sip of Mango Mamma and you can just image yourself swinging in a hammock. Mango Mamma is a semi-sweet wine that pares wonderful with grilled chicken serve with a mango salsa.

Their white sangria, Class 5 Hurricane is a blend of five fruits, pineapple, passion fruit, key lime, mango and watermelon. With each sip, you can actually differentiate the tastes.
What a great wine to enjoy during hurricane season!

What could be better than watermelon wine to serve with your barbecue? Serve with chunks of watermelon on a skewer for a terrific presentation.

Do you love Pina Coladas? Want that Jimmy Buffet' state-of-mind, try Coco Polada. Tropical Wine Party's blend of orange, pineapple and coconut wine. Tastes like a Pina Colada without the heavy coconut milk.

Serving ham for lunch or dinner, have some Florida Sunset, pineapple wine. Experience the flavor of fresh pineapple with that slightly sweet/tart finish. Exotic, tropical and somewhat mysterious, this wine stimulates your taste buds as no other. Try reducing the Florida Sunset pineapple wine and use it as a glaze on your ham, delicious!

Have you noticed, no grapes have been mentioned. Tropical Wine Party does offer on grape wine, a muscadine grape, actually the noble muscadine. They offer their Sinfully Noble Muscadine Wine in a dry or sweet finish. The Florida muscadine noble grape produces a dark red wine with a purple fluorescence that seems to radiate tastes and aroma. This unique variety of grape has undertones of concord and white American oak combined with overtones of it distinctly muscadine character.

So when you desire a nice chilled bottle of summer wine, seek an alternative.
