In this week's Valentines Day episode, Gina and Julie wax poetic about their great wine loves and present a bouquet of a dozen rosés.
- Send Nudes Rosé , from the folks who bring you Sexual Chocolate, a Rosé of Pinot from Sonoma
- Thomas Jefferson sparkling, could not resist this since it is also Presidents Day coming up. This is a Cremant de Limoux made from Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc and Pinot Noir.
- Chimney Rock, cab franc, dark almost looks like cranberry juice
- Elizabeth Spencer, it’s Grenache, dry and tropical, hard to find
- Chateau Auguste from Bordeaux, right bank style, Merlot, Cab and Cab Franc
- Charles Joguet Chinon Rose. Cab Franc makes a killer pink wine.
- Terrebrune Bandol Rose- salmon in color and strawberry aromas. Mourvedre, Grenache and Cinsault.
- Chene Bleu Rosé - a higher- end rosé made from Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre, Cinsault and Rolle.
- Some Rosé s are bubbly: May we suggest Lanson Rose
- Billecart Salmon
- For a lower budget bubble, there’s Anna di Codorinu Cava which is a beautiful bottle to look at- major points for packaging. And can be found at around $10. A great party wine. If anyone’s having a lonely hearts party for the singletons on V day- this is the quantity wine for you!
- Remember the "Brangelina" rosé - Miraval? Now that the glossy sheen of celebrity has abated, the wine stands as a fab bottle to present on Valentine's or any day.
