I love wine! If you follow my work blog, Indiana Wines, you know my paying gig is to promote Indiana’s wonderful wineries!! I have the best job in agriculture.
One of my friends recently pointed out to me that I should be blogging about the wine I am drinking. I’m not sure why I never thought of that? So I am going to invite you to Wine With Me as I take you through wines I love to drink!
The first wine I am going to feature is from Indiana. Not every week will have Indiana wines. I do drink alot of wines from my home state, but I enjoy other wines too! However, during the hot summer months we have been having, I have been stuck on drinking Rose’s and Sauvingon Blancs. Last night I opened a bottle of Huber Orchard, Winery & Vineyards Stella. I could drink this wine every night of the summer!
Huber Winery was started in 1843 and is the 7th generation of family ownership. This winery, located in Starlight, IN, just 30 minutes north of Louisville, is a family favorite. They not only made dozens of award-winning wines, they have an ice cream parlor, a corn maze, a farmer’s market store, and many more fun things for the family!
As for the wine, the rose’ is a blend of Chambourcin and Cabernet Sauvignon. It is classified as off-dry, meaning there is just a little touch of sweetness when you taste it. Although when I drink it I don’t think it tastes sweet, just full of fruit.
The wine is a beautiful deep pink in the glass. When you taste and smell it, you will notice tastes of cherries and strawberries. It is the perfect wine to enjoy chilled on your back porch! If you want to pair it with food, I’d recommend enjoying it with a pork loin.
And at $18 a bottle, it is a bargain!! Let me know if you enjoy it! Cheers!!
