Green Wine and Jamon

Yippeeeeeeee, theVinho Verde has arrived! This light, fresh and slightly spritzy wine has a special place in my heart, not only because it's low in alcohol so I can drink more of it, but also because it's just darn yummy and makes me feel like summer each year when it comes in. Another thing that makes me feel like summer, or rather summer makes me feel like, is sitting on a patio drinking my Vinho Verde and lunching on snacks of cured meats, fresh fruit and cheeses. I was pondering what sounded good and the first thing, my favorite of the cured meats in fact, is ham. So be it Virginia, Prosciutto, or Serrano ham, I will eat it with green wine, just as soon as I can - said Ash I am.
