Rosé wine: my summertime favorite drink to enjoy. Still, few other Americans seem to be in my camp but my gut tells me that I'm onto something. Most wine shops in Connecticut, where the wine shops are a'plenty, carry between 5-10 different types. I'm on a quest to find the perfect bottle. Right now I'm enjoying Flying Cloud 2004 Syrah Rosé. It smells of strawberries and tastes of grapefruit but is young. The screw cap doesn't really add to the experience either. I've been told that a good rosé should cost less than $15 and this was close to that. It might be good with a balsamic grilled portobello or angel food cake but wasn't so good with the guacamole and chips that I called dinner.

About Me
- Name: Kelli
- Location: Ridgefield, Connecticut, United States
Issaquah, Washington born and bred. It took two trips to New York and my heart broke when I had to return to Seattle after a vacation. Moved to NYC in September 2000. On September 11th, 2001, I became a New Yorker. Spent 2002-2004 in Chicago (regrouping) and met the best people and went to the best bars and saw amazing architecture but my heart pulled my husband and me back to the NY area. We now live in Ridgefield, Connecticut (45 min on the express train to Grand Central) where we can play tennis, enjoy the amazing beauty of this area and still be close to our love, NYC. No kids other than Betty the bulldog. We just bought our first home close to town where we can have a full-on organic garden (dream job: Union Square Farmers Market). We LOVE good food, good beer and sharing both with friends on a warm summer evening.
