The Third Cameron Hughes Rosé

The third Cameron Hughes rosé is a Willamette Valley rosé of pinot noir (583), so I’m predisposed to love it as Willamette is a region I both love and am very familiar with … and we know how I feel about rosé in general. Secretly, this wine comes from Firesteed. On my spectrum of favorite…

PATIO | Feel Good Friday 062317 (+ more Rosé, naturally)

It’s summer, and there is nothing I love more right now that hanging out on my patio (rosé in hand, probably). Last weekend, the patio hosted a super-fun graduation party on Saturday. We played Sunday volleyball. Then, post-vb we ordered Thai food and spent the next several hours just lounging around. It was perfect. The…

Rosé = YOLO

Vodka Taste Training

“She’s my little whiskey girl …” No, that song wasn’t written about me, but were I an actual celeb, maybe? Point is I am decidedly not a vodka person. I’ve said before that if you see me drinking a vodka soda, you know I’m trying to be drunk (that night) and skinny (in life, not…

CalNaturale Wine

I’ve been exploring wine quite a bit recently (that’s not code for just getting drunk, though it could be), and trying out more of my mom’s fave Cameron Hughes (click here for $25 off your first order), perhaps encouraged by last year’s press trip to Loudoun County, VA with a total wine guru. When I…
