With Memorial Day just a week away, my fiancée and I have been trying to finalize our plans as to where we would go and what to bring. The Spring and Summertime are perfect for grilling outside and having some great wine, and we are extremely excited to finally get out there! I was talking to my fellow wine director Ted about his plans, and he informed me that he was getting a case of the newest release of Vivanco Rose for the Holiday. I didn't waste a second and replied, I'M IN! I told him I would take care of all the food if he had this beauty of a rose. So, needless to say, I truly enjoy rose's. I am not ashamed to say it either. In my humble opinion, I think they are the most versatile wine, pairing with almost any type of food, and Perfect for the warm weather!
The newest release from Vivanco is 80% tempranillo and 20% Garnacha, a light and bright rose with lots of red raspberry, hints of strawberries and a true summer wine. It's acidity and balance of flavors compliments well with almost any grilled meat or seafood.
Last summer I was fortunate enough to travel through Rioja on a wine excursion, and the families there grilled EVERYTHING! A perfectly grilled lamp chop with this rose is like a dream come true...
Everyone enjoy your Memorial day, and I STRONGLY suggest stopping by and trying this ever-so-perfect Barbecue Rose!
