It’s Wine Thursday!

our weekly good-wine-

at-a-good-price-that-you-can-find

recommendation,

just in time for your weekend.  

Whether you’re going to spend the weekend

rubbing elbows with the crowd on the Italian Riveria

or just chillin’ in your backyard,

we have a tasty French rosé to recommend.

AIX comes to us from…well…AIX.  

Aix is a city/commune in Provence in the south of France,

a region known world-wide for it’s wonderful rosé. 

The AIX 2018 lives up to the region’s reputation. 

Berry flavors combine with crisp acidity

 to form a textbook French rosé.

If your goal this weekend is to stay

“fraiche comme le rose” 

(fresh as a rose) or even better

“fraiche comme le rosé”,

AIX rosé will work just fine.   

We found AIX at New Seasons for $15.99, Fred Meyer for $16.99,

Whole Foods and Market of Choice for $17.99

and QFC for $19.99. 

Note:  we did see a few bottles of the 2017 vintage

on the retail shelves. 

We did not taste the ’17, only the ’18,

but from vintage to vintage, Provence rosés are fairly consistent.
