Wine

Is it rosé season yet? Actually, for some of us, any month that has at least 28 days is a good time to think pink. The Domaine d'Arton Ysé Côtes de Gascogne Rosé 2012 is a juicy, tingly delight, with darker fruit flavors than the color portends, perhaps because it's 100 percent syrah. The clean texture and mouthwatering finish make it a good match for any food, and the perfect picnic wine. Available for around $12 at Cork Dork, Kowalski's, Byerly's Ridgedale, Century, Dolce Vita, Solo Vino and Northfield muni.
