Minimus 2016
This Would Be Illegal in Europe
Red Pink White
Rosé
Blend of Pinot Gris, Syrah, Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, Tempranillo; or is it Tempranillo, Chenin Blanc, Pinot Gris, Petite Arvine, Schiopettino, Savagnin Rose, and Abouriou. I have found three different wine sellers and writers saying all different things so hey, Chad you have us all jumbled, but who cares?

A glass of deep murky rosé. Oh the lovely whiff of light cherry, hay, and licorice in a candy way, floral and granite. Sipping lovely cherry and cola. Tastes like it smells and as it opens up, it becomes much more complex and funkilicious. My hats off to Chad Stock! Yes, I will admit it, I’m a Chad Stock fangirl.

A Basket of Kittens

Fossil & Fawn

Rosé 2019
Oregon
Pinot Noir & Pinot Gris

Deep plummy vibrant salmon color.

On the tip of my nose is salt, orange blossoms, orange peel, tangerine, and I do believe slate. Take a gentle swig and pow what an explosion. This isn’t a shy kitten. It wants to come out and play There’s apple, a touch of tart. There’s cranberries (not the band), strawberries, orange peel, tingle, salt, mineral/stone, and a touch of funk.

Day two makes me want to dress up to go to work in the home office. Ok, so it’s still jeans, but with a spring green silk top with fairywrens on it.

Pairs with Cheez-Its: Makes it much sweeter, quite sweet…maybe a touch of honey.

WINE MEMORIES from 8.8.19

Stolpman Vineyards
Estate Grown
Rosé of Grenache 2018
Ballard Canyon, Santa Barbara, CA

Beautiful bright shining salmon color. Take a breath and wild strawberries, slate, and raspberries. Take sip and there’s a little lemon, again the wild strawberries, and a touch of hay that mellows out. Makes me want to run in a field barefoot and feel the earth again.

A Bottle of Sunshine

“Sunny day
Sweeping the clouds away”
This is a bottle of sunshine

Cantine Su’entu 
Nina Rosé 2018
Isola Dei Nuraghi Rosso IGT
Sardegna 

Grape: Bovale and a small touch of vermentino (anyone that knows me, knows the Dean Martin song stuck in my head now. Lyrics way below)

The color is a beautiful bright salmon. Opening it up, and the first that hits me is grapefruit (don’t kill me, it’s an ipa grapefruit) then fresh strawberries and floral.

 Now for the first sip, whoa there a lot more to this wine than I originally thought. Just like the nose, there’s just picked strawberries, grapefruit (but now not like an ipa), and salt. It’s fresh, bright, but has a body. Sweet w a hint of tart. Lovely. This is a wonderful touch of summer. Wish I was outside, but one can always dream…

My really sweet dad keeps sending me wonderful care packages including Cheez-Its. So here goes “Pairs with Cheez-its”:  My Cheez-it brings deeper strawberries to the yard

Otherwise: Would be great w shrimp and scallops. *Edit: I would love this with fried shrimp (Carolina or Gulf) and hush puppies and sitting on a deck staring at the sea

Lyrics

Volare, oh oh
Cantare, oh oh oh oh
Let’s fly way up to the clouds
Away from the maddening crowds
We can sing in the glow of a star that I know of
Where lovers enjoy peace of mind
Let us leave the confusion and all disillusion behind
Just like bird of a feather, a rainbow together we’ll find
Volare, oh oh
E contare, oh oh oh oh
No wonder my happy heart sings
Your love has given me wings
Penso che un sogno cosi non ritorni mai più
Mi dipingevo le mani e la faccia di blu
Poi d’improvviso venivo dal vento rapito
E incominciavo a volare nel cielo infinito
Volare, oh oh
E contare, oh oh oh oh
Nel blu, dipinto di blu
Felice di stare lassu
E volavo, volavo felice piu in alto del sole ed ancora piu su
Mentre il mondo pian piano spariva lontano laggiu
Una musica dolce suonava soltanto per me
Volare, oh oh
E cantare, oh oh oh oh
No wonder my happy heart sings
Your love has given me wings
Nel blu, dipinto di blu

Felice di stare lassu
