This post was sponsored on behalf of Louis Jadot via One2One Network. As always, all opinions stated are my own. With spring in full bloom and summer on the way, it’s rosé time! I’m all about #RoséAllDay, #RoséYesWay, #SundayRosé, and every other hashtag associated with love for rosé wines. Rosé wines get their iconic pink-blush color from the grape skins. My younger self fell in love with their pretty hues. My older, wiser self falls in love with rosés each summer as I learn more about the unique characteristics and flavor profiles of different rosé wines. Louis Jadot Rose Wine You have probably heard of Louis Jadot before. They’re the #1 French wine in the United States and this year their introducing their French rosé! Today I’m sharing a super easy and deliciously savory recipe to pair with Jadot Rosé. This rosé is floral and fruity with notes of red currants and raspberries. It’s mellow enough to easy drinking on it’s on, but it’s even better when paired with certain foods. It stands up really well against zesty or spicy foods (think Thai food!). But most of all, it’s perfect with picnic foods like grilled vegetables, charcuterie and cheese boards, pasta salads, and all things GARLIC! Roasted Garlic Bread This roasted garlic bread is life. It’s one of my favorite things to serve at parties and gatherings. Garlic bread can scare off people (bad breath, strong flavors, etc), but roasted garlic bread brings everyone to the table. Roasted garlic smells amazing. It’s slightly sweeter and milder in flavor compared to raw garlic. Roasted garlic mixed with softened butter and simply seasoned with salt, black better, and a touch of parmesan cheese is heavenly. T his roasted garlic bread is terrific as an appetizer to serve alongside a chilled bottle of Jadot rosé. Add some roasted almonds, fresh strawberries and grapes, and call it a party. (For more hearty meals, this roasted garlic bread is wonderful with a bowl of bowl of fettuccine alfredo or some shrimp scampi!) Get ready for dining al fresco and basking in the warm weather with friends and family! Grab a few bottles of Jadot rosé and enjoy!

heather (delicious not gorgeous) says: May 16, 2017 ?? i’m not afraid of a bit of raw garlic, but this one sounds a lot more delicate and crowd friendly (which is a good thing because i shouldn’t be allowed to eat all the garlic bread by myself lol). Reply
