What makes you think of summer: fresh strawberries, cycling trips, BBQs and picnics? For the Savvy Sommeliers it’s the crisp, refreshing taste of rosé wine and now they are making it easier for you to enjoy them this summer.
Building on the success of our wine and craft beer of-the-month-clubs, today we launched ‘One Dozen Rosés’, a unique delivery service that brings 12 bottles of the Ontario’s best rosé wines to your home, office or even cottage. Next to the taste, the best part is free delivery.
“Rosé wines unleash the creativity in a winemaker. They can be made from any combination of grape variety resulting in dramatically different styles,” says Savvy Company president & Sommelier Debbie Trenholm. “There are so many exceptional rosé wines made right here in Ontario but not all are available at the LCBO. We’ve launched this service to help Ontarians experience those hidden gems.”
Hand-picked Rosé wines delivered to your door
One Dozen Rosés take the guess work out of which rosé wines to buy and gives the consumer access to hard-to-find wines. The accredited Sommeliers from Savvy Company have sampled countless bottles and hand-picked the finest to be included in One Dozen Rosés, a one-of-a-kind assortment.
Summertime sipping made easy
Each month throughout the summer – July, August and September – Savvy Company will offer a different selection of 12 bottles of rosé wines. You can choose to sign up for all three months or just one.
To further the enjoyment, customers will receive The Rosé Report, a mini-magazine including interesting stories about the winery and winemaker, the Savvy Sommeliers’ tasting notes and summertime recipes perfectly paired with the selection of rosé wines.
Accolades from the wineries
“One Dozen Rosés is brilliant! Tawse has three rosé wines currently available, two that are only available direct from the winery. This is an innovative way for consumers to enjoy our fine wines throughout the summer.” Daniel LaFleur, Sales Manager at Tawse Winery in Niagara. In July, One Dozen Rosés will showcase a not-yet-released rosé from Redstone Winery (Tawse’s newest venture). Tawse rosés will be included in the August assortment.
“I am proud that I have created two high quality rosés right here in Prince Edward County. With Savvy’s new One Dozen Rosés, everyone can enjoy my limited production wines and the convenience of having them delivered,” says Frédéric Picard, winemaker at Huff Estates in Prince Edward County. Huff will be featured in the August collection.
You don’t even have to get up off your lawn chair to take advantage of this offer. One Dozen Rosés can be ordered online at savvycompany.ca/rose
