94 Degrees and a Rosé of Pinot... Grigio?
Monday, August 6, 2012 at 1:30PM The heat was oppressive here in Vermont on Saturday, with temperatures reaching into the mid-90s, and the humidity only compounding the rising temperatures. As I watched the local farmers and merchants sweat beneath their umbrellas at the Burlington Farmer's Market, I knew that the afternoon would be spent finding ways to beat the heat. Unfortunately, still being in the process of rehabbing from knee surgery, I wasn't able to go swimming. So naturally (for me, anyways), my thoughts turned to wading in the water as far as my sutures would let me, and sipping on my summertime drink of choice: rosé.
For those of you who are interested, I did consider bringing Lambrusco as well, but I couldn't find any readily available. I suppose, like most trends, Lambrusco will be somewhat delayed in arriving to the Vermont scene. Nevertheless, I was not at all disappointed in having to bring Calatroni's Rosé of Pinot Grigio on my trip to the Waterbury Reservoir.
