Last summer, our wine of preference was rosés of every hue and sourced from a spectrum of red varietals. This year, we are scoping our options early. Here is our guide to finding them no matter where you start your wine tasting day.

West of town: Three Rivers Winery Estate Rosé (Cab Franc).

Downtown: Bergevin Lane Rosé, Sleight of Hand Magicians Assistant Rosé (Cabernet Franc), Waterbrook Winery Sangiovese Rosé.

East of town: Adamant Cellars Rosé, Trio Vintners Tres Rosé (50% Sangiovese, 50% Mourvèdre).

South of town: Basel Cellars Rosé (50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 50% Syrah), Isenhower Cellars Horse Heaven Hills Rose (58% Counoise, 30% Mourvedre, 12% Grenache), Rulo Winery Rosé (Syrah), Waters Winery Rosé (67% Syrah and 33% Viognier), Tertulia Cellars Mourvedre du Rosé and Trust Cellars Rosé (Cabernet Franc).

Now to pack the picnic basket.

I am sure this is not a complete list. We will update it as we uncover other pinks.
