Pour a Glass of Rosé and Toast Summer and Sunshine

Let’s Pour a Glass of Rosé and Toast Summer and Sunshine! National Rosé Day is June 13th and the first day of Summer is June 20th. For years I have looked forward to the summer months, when restaurants feature roses. Tasting all kinds, some light, some dry, some pale in color, some dark pink is fun. Today, I called Varmax Liquor Pantry, my favorite wine store with a large selection and knowledgeable staff. I asked Tim for the most popular roses and I ordered four – all under $20 a bottle. Tonight Jerry and I are having our own private wine tasting and toast to summer. Which one will win: Bieler Pere & Fils – Rose Sabine Aix en Provence ($12.99); Chateau des Bormettes -Rose L’ Argentine ($18.99); Domaine Isle Saint Pierre – Rose ($9.99); Karine Lauverjat – Sancerre Rose ($19.99).
