Los Angeles Kings 2021 Wine Pairing, Wayne Gretzky Pinot Grigio VQA
Wine notes
August 9, 1988 was the day that hockey changed when Wayne Gretzky was traded to the L.A. Kings. It just makes sense for the Kings to be paired with the Great One’s Pinot Grigio this year.
The Gretzky Pinot Grigio will quench your thirst as the temperature starts to heat up. The Kings won’t be in the playoffs this year, but you can still enjoy this selection throughout the playoffs, especially if you are looking for something refreshing for BBQ season!
Team notes
The L.A. Kings were one of the teams that did not experience the NHL Bubble in 2020. Coming into the 2021 season this meant they were one of the most rested teams.
A core group of players from L.A.’s Stanley Cup Championship teams in 2012 and 2014 are still the highlights of the roster this year, including: Captain Dustin Brown, Drew Doughty, Anze Kopitar, and Jonathan Quick. The Kings won’t make the playoffs this year, so chill a bottle of Gretzky Pinot Grigio and think of brighter days like Stanley Cups and Wayne scoring 802.
