An End of Summer Italian Rosé

October 15, 2021 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

My wife and I have been on a bit of an Italian wine kick lately, as we plan a visit to Italy for next spring and try to decide which of the many great wineries there to visit. One that will certainly be on my hit list is Masseria Li Veli. I’ve written in the past about this excellent winery and their terrific variety of wines, and will return to it this week because I enjoy … [Read more...]

Martini & Rossi Sparkling Rosé: Crisp, Dry and a Very Good Value

August 6, 2021 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

If you are of a certain age, you may think of Martini & Rossi wines as teeth achingly sweet - wine your grandparents might have enjoyed. But have you tasted wines from Martini & Rossi lately? You might be surprised.  Martini & Rossi is the #1 Italian sparkling wine brand in the world, not just in part because they are so affordable ($14.99 SRP). I recently … [Read more...]

Unshackled Rosé

June 25, 2021 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

You are likely familiar with one of the best-selling California red wines on the market, The Prisoner, created by The Prisoner Wine Company. But The Prisoner Wine Company—named for the iconic wine originally made by founding winemaker Dave Phinney—makes much more than just The Prisoner red wine.  The Prisoner Wine Company recently launched a line of wines where, apparently, … [Read more...]

Bonterra Organic Rosé

February 4, 2021 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

If you’re looking to toast your honey on Valentine’s Day, why not do it with Rosé? Pink wines are terrific anytime, but seem especially appropriate when Cupid’s slinging his arrows.  And on this special day devoted to love, how about showing some love for our planet by toasting with Bonterra Organic Vineyards Rosé, which is available in both bottles ($16) and boxes ($22.99). … [Read more...]

Gérard Bertrand 2018 Cote des Roses Rosé

October 15, 2020 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Personally, I like to sip Rosé any time of the year and on almost any occasion. Ever since I visited Provence for the first time years ago, I’ve come to love the stuff. I find that Rosé wines pair very well with a wide array of foods and cuisines, from Asian fare and tacos, to burgers from the grill. Most of the time, you can’t go wrong reaching for Rosé.  I think that’s … [Read more...]

A Lovely French Rosé: Pierre Riffault Les & Hommes Rosé

September 4, 2020 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

During a visit to Hearth and Hill restaurant in Park City my wife and I enjoyed a lovely bottle of French Rosé from their wine list. It was called Pierre Riffault Sancerre Les 7 Hommes ($26.47). While most of us are familiar with the white wines of France’s Sancerre region in the center of France, I’d never had Rosé from there and was eager to try it out. I wasn’t … [Read more...]

A Versatile Italian Rose: Masseria Li Veli Susumaniello

February 21, 2020 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

  Last week in this column I wrote about a nifty new wine discovery from Italy called Casanova di Neri IrROSSO. This week, I’m turning my attention to another really great Italian wine. This one is a Rosé: Masseria Li Veli Susumaniello 2018 ($21.99). Masseria Li Veli is a winery in Italy’s Apulia region, founded and operated since 1999 by the Falvo family. They’ve … [Read more...]

JNSQ : A Most Beautiful Bottle of Wine

January 17, 2020 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

When my wife brought home a bottle of Rosé wine from California that she’d found at our local wine store, my first thought was: Duped! You see, she has a fondness for wines with pretty bottles and/or label art. And when I saw the bottle of Rosé she’d purchased - called JNSQ Rosé Cru - I was sure she’d been taken for a proverbial ride. The bottle … well … it’s beautiful. But … [Read more...]

Bonterra Rosé: Vibrant and Crisp Organic Rose Wine

March 7, 2019 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

This past week has been so unseasonably warm that it has me thinking about spring and sipping wine on the patio. And that means thinking about Rose wines. Although, to be honest, I think about (and drink) Rosé all year ‘round. Gone are the days of treating Rose solely as a warm weather picnic wine. Organic Rose Wine Lately, I’ve been leaning towards investigating wines from … [Read more...]
