Drink of the Week: Bernard Baudry Chinon Rosé 2010

With the holiday weekend kicking off, we’re already thinking about hanging out by the grill over the next three days, and today’s Drink of the Week is one thing we’ll be sipping while we’re grilling. Bernard Baudry’s 2010 Chinon rosé just hit the U.S. market, and already we’ve been making space in our fridge for multiple bottles. Produced by one of the Loire Valley’s most reputable vintners, this minimally processed rosé is light and fresh with flavors of red summer berries balanced by a touch of dried herbs on the finish. Pair it with grilled chicken, summery salads and an extra day of relaxation. $17, chambersstwines.com
