Veganorte for wine, food and tee-shirts on a wine theme, in La Palma, The Canary Islands

 

I think I shall try on this one. I found it at a winery with chairs outside for lunch, on La Palma, in the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean. We flew to Tenerife, hired a car, and took the ferry across to La Palma for a hiking holiday with a group who go every year. My husband and I visited several wineries. This one had wine, food, wine and food to buy, plus these irresistible tee-shirts.


Perfect. Perfetto.

I tried on the other tee shirts, but a square pattern of thick paint did not fit well over a curvy chest. This tee shirt with the wine glasses looked and felt the best. So it was the one I bought. Just the thing for wine tastings, wine events, fine wine lunches, fine wine dinners. 





These tee shirts cost about 13.5 euros at the winery which offers wine tastings or lunches of pate and toast. 
Unfortunately they don't ship the tee-shirts, so you have to visit them, or ask a friend to buy one for you and tell your friend if you want medium or large tee shirts or aren't fussy.

On the internet you will find lots more similar tee shirts with wine themes from various suppliers. Or you can take a photo of yourself with your favourite glass of wine and bottle and get it printed on a tee
shirt and cap. Or a couples shirt, a matching pair of shirts. For an engagement, wedding or anniversary.

A short sleeved tee-shirt is a bit casual for an evening dinner, unless it is very hot and you dress it up with black high heels, a fancy skirt in red or black, smart jewellery, and a glamorous hair style and bag. Maybe a black hairband or hat.

All I need now is ear rings.

Useful Websites
For wine

Prices and mark ups on wine vary considerable. At the airport leaving Tenerife we checked the UK prices of Canary wines on winesearcher.com. Several wines offered were cheaper to buy in the UK than from the airport shop, but we found one bargain bottle. 

You can bring back a surprisingly large number of bottles, especially if you are a family of adults. We bought an extra suitcase for bringing back wine, one with sturdy sides, at vast expense.  

We also paid for an extra checked in suitcase on Ryanair.

You need to do your tastings at the wineries in advance so that when you get to the airport to leave you are sure which winery, grape, style, and year of production is of interest to you and worth the money.
