Spring is in the air which means Rosé is on our minds

Rosé has taken the world by storm As little as 15 years ago we barely gave it a second glance (outside of White Zin and Metus of course). We are excited to learn why and how this light, crispy, flavorful, and friendly wine is putting smiles on the faces of everyone who partakes. The primary flavors in Rosé are red fruit, flowers, citrus, and melon, with a pleasant crunchy green flavor on the finish like celery or rhubarb. Of course, this all depends on the type of grapes and the wine regions where the grapes are grown. Learn about Rosé from France to Italy to Spain to California and beyond All this with a bite of food from Executive Chef David Daniel’s to pair with the springtime.
