Summer Rosé on the Oregon Coast

This past Sunday, my wife Liz and my two dogs, Mya (the orange dog) and Jacques (the black lab), headed to the beach. We hit New Seasons Market, picked up some fresh fruit, cheese, and baguettes, grabbed a bottle of the newly released 2007 Rosé of Pinot Noir. We picked up some Riverside Edge Chevre from the Three Ring Farm.

We sliced white peaches and spread Toasted Hazlenut and Frangelico Torte on them. We brought along our trusty camping wine glasses and sat sipping Sokol Blosser Rosé. This was a flavor match made in heaven. We sat in the sun, watched the surfers brave the chilly Pacific Ocean and ran our dogs. After a long day of relaxing, we finished in Cannon Beach by grabbing some fresh chowder at Doogers. Perfect day.

Do yourself a favor and pick up some of the 2007 Rosé of Pinot Noir. It is honestly one of the best Rosés that I have ever tasted. If you want to step it up a notch further, race to New Seasons, get some of that goat cheese and a fresh white peach. Then get ready to head to the store to pick up some new socks, because the ones that you are wearing are going to get knocked off.
