01 May It’s National Wine Day AND Oregon Wine Month Celebrate with Brooks 2016 Rosé of Pinot Noir

Today, Thursday, May 25 is National Wine Day AND National Tap Dance Day.

You do not want to see Pat The Wine Guy tap dance.

As Dirty Harry said, “a man’s got to know his limitations.”

Thus, we’ll do what we do best which is recommend good wine buys that you can find.

Continuing our salute to Oregon wine month and acknowledging the toasty Memorial Day weather forecast, our thoughts turn to chilled rosé.   Here’s one worthy of space in your fridge:

Brooks 2016 Rosé of Pinot Noir

This is a rosé that is meant to be savored, not guzzled.  Medium-bodied with a strong fruit (strawberry comes to mind) flavor, the Brooks Rosé of Pinot Noir would be a terrific compliment to seafood and/or grilled chicken, likely suspects for your Memorial Day menu.

If you’ve had a bad previous experience with rosés…way too sweet…this one should bring you back around.

Located near Amity, Brooks is a boutique winery that has built a good reputation over the past several years.

They’ll likely win even more fans with this nice sub-$20 Rosé of Pinot Noir.
