Wine
Bliss Rosé
A California Rosé that can’t wait to get outside and help you kick up your feet. This showy Rosé showcases delicious strawberry and watermelon scents on the nose while the palate is full of bright, fresh fruit flavors with a touch of spice in the mid palate that blends into a long strawberry finish.
Ca’ Momi Heartcraft Sparkling Rosé
Brunch is calling and it’s asking for the Heartcraft Rosé. Appetizing aromatics of fresh sliced strawberries and sweet citrus zest float atop fresh baked shortbread for a sensory experience that pairs flawlessly with warm sunshine. Add a splash of Aperol and soda water for a delicious spring spritzer.
The Vidal-Fleury Côtes Du Rhône is a Grenache-heavy red blend with flavors of cherries and herbes de Provence – it’s a classic favorite of the Spec’s wine experts.
