The 1st rosés of spring, Cakebread wine dinner highlight tastings list

Keep hope alive, my friends. Spring is coming. No, I haven’t looked at the forecast. I looked instead at this amazing wine-tastings list, which contains the first Provence Rosé of the season. That’s a better harbinger of spring than any ol’ robin redbreast. Check out the Cakebread Wine Dinner at Ray’s Wine Spirits Grill coming up Tuesday. And a mighty tip of the cap to the local wine listserv that compiles this list of wine tastings, beer tastings, special dinners and other events and allows us to copy and paste their work here!
