Chateau du Rouet's
delicious Rosé

As far as I am concerned, nothing says Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays like a heavenly smelling, richly-hued French Rosé. Flavors such as grapefruit, ripe orange, and melon bring balance to Réservée Tradition’s light, juicy profile. For about $15, this crisp Grenache-Syrah-Cinsault blend overflows with good cheer and will satiate your warm-weather palate all winter long.

Sharing your great taste in wine is a beautiful way to say you care; therefore, Chateau du Rouet Cuvée Reservée Tradition will make the perfect holiday gift.

Avg. Cost: $14.99

Cameron Hughes'
Amazing Rosé

After trying this last week and loving it, I drove to Costco yesterday to buy 3 more bottles. Cameron Hughes has offered some impressive value-priced wines over the years, but Lot 349 has to be one of their best Rosés.

With layers of citrus, raspberry and sliced melon, this gem is the perfect holiday wine. For under $10 I suggest you buy multiple bottles since only limited quantities are available. Subtly sweet with natural fruit flavors (rosé’s do not contain any sugar) this is a refreshing, classic Rosé.
Lot 349 is a must buy: I know Costco stores (especially in Southern Cali) can be madhouses, but I promise this wine is well worth it!
Cost: $9.99, Costco

Succulent red fruit balances elegantly with lively acidity resolving in along and sustained finish. Visit the Cameron Hughes website to see what store locations carry this wine.
