Somebody pass the albarino!

So Jornada 3 has come and gone in the Spanish Second Division and now all teams have given away at least one point. Every team that was undeated and untied going into the weekend either lost of drew. Girona was actually the only team to draw and thus they sit in the pormotion zone along with Hercules and Basque side Real Sociedad.

There is one thing very apparent after this weekend and that is Celta de Vigo is in serious trouble of falling off and never climbing out of the relegation hole. Two of their losses have been at home including one to Gimnastic de Tarragona where the Catalans ran circles around the Galicians. Joder macho... Celta has some illustrious history in their club but dark days could loom ahead if they don't pull out of it.
So what could their fans do to help relieve their anxiety? Drink, of course!! The region of Galicia sits right to the north of Portugal on the Atlantic coast. It is a slice of Ireland in Spain. It has beautiful rolling green hills, outstanding beaches with crystal blue water and vineyards sprouting with some of the best wine you've ever tasted. The wine grown in Galicia is a white wine made from the grape called 'albarino'. The Denominacion de Origen is Rias Baixas. But don't take my word for it, hop on to the fantastic website http://www.catavino.net/ and you can read up on all the Albarinos. One would have to assume that after their 0-2 loss to Nastic, plenty of Vigueses were drowning their sorrows in locally made Albarinos.
Next time you are in your local wine shop, pick up a bottle and toast victory for Celta! They need as much help as they can get right now.
