The days are getting longer and warmer. It’s time for linen pants. It’s time for dressy white shoes. It’s time for cookouts and throwing manure in your flower beds. Spring has got sprungt.
And best of all…it’s rosé season! It’s time for drinking all the blush colored rosé wine you can handle. Hell, let’s drink more than we can handle.
Is “yes way, rosé” BASIC? Don’t curr because rosé is yummy and it gets your drunk. Plus I don’t watch The Good Wife and I don’t wear my liquid eyeliner like TayTay and I don’t do Pinterest, so I have some Basic bitch wiggle room. Just avoid drinking it while wearing Lilly Pulitzer from head to toe while talking about how the Southern Charm is totes amazeballs.
Rosé wine is tasty and pretty at the same time. Is it truly in season? I’m no sommelier, but my chic friend Heather said that the rosé was popping the Soho House pool in NYC this past weekend. If anyone knows, it’s Heather.
Rosé is dry and refreshing. It tastes even better if you are sitting in an Adirondack chair while a guy named Hudson is rubbing your feet (Hudson is wearing seersucker and Sperry’s).
Drunk on the good life ?⚓️? #rosé

I don’t know what this rosé tastes like, but this is the best product name ever. Forget the summer shandy. Rosé is summer water!
