Drink of the Week: Pueblo del Sol Rosé 2011

Like a good wine deal? When it comes to big taste on a tight budget, South American wines deliver, and today’s Drink of the Week—the raspberry-hued Pueblo del Sol rosé from Uruguay—is no exception. With notes of ripe berries, food-friendly acidity and steely minerality on the finish, it’s the perfect pairing for an al fresco dinner party, and at 9 bucks a pop, it’s practically a steal. $9, klwines.com
