What’s one thing you wish you would have learned in college before becoming a full-fledged adult? I’ll go first. You will likely have to forfeit perfect pool weather to spend an entire day working in the yard and doing miscellaneous house chores. #thejoysofbeingahomeowner
After doing all the things on Saturday, I decided there was no better reward than a glass or three of rosé. Am I right? I picked up a bottle of Aime La Vie! when I was at Trader Joe’s last week and decided to give it a whirl. After all, the label was too cute, and with the name Aime La Vie, which translates to “love the life”, how could I say no. Without further ado, let’s jump into the tasting details!
TASTING NOTES:
Screwtop
Somewhere between a pale pink and a medium pink
Medium body with notes of strawberry and cherry
Fruit-forward with hints of citrus throughout
Medium acidity- think sipping on a fresh summer lemonade
Balanced- can easily enjoy on its own or paired with fish, poultry, or a fun cheese board
Soft mouthfeel
Verdict:
Summer is officially here and that means stocking up on all the rosé. I have to say, I am a fan of the Aime La Vie!. At first taste, I thought it might be too fragrant and sweet, but was pleasantly surprised as the citrus notes prevailed. It truly exudes freshness, and at this price, it’s worth a taste. Grab a bottle next time you are at Trader Joe’s and let me know what you think!
Until Next Time!
