Summer's Sweet Bottles

A. Renée will have a booth at downtown Bloomington’s Farmer’s Market this Saturday, September 8!!! They will have samples of Ropp Jersey Cheese, dressings, salsas, and other delectibles!

I'd also recommend talking the short walk from the Farmer's Market to their store front to pick up an amazing bottle or three of wine! I'm been sampling my way through some amazing sweet wines this summer, here's a few of my favorites!!

• Pheasant Hollow Winery Red & Blue
• Illinois River Winery Chocolate Raspberry Port
• A. Renée Muscott
• Pheasant Hollow Winery Black & Blue (My Old Favorite)
• Il Conte D'Alba NV Stella Rosa (My New Favorite!!)
• Muscadel - South African, Can't remember the exact name (Update: It's Rietvallei Red Muscadel 2005)... it's my other new favorite!

Update 9/9: I bought a bottle of Beni Di Batasiolo Bosc Dla Dei - Moscato D'Asti (2006) this weekend and just opened it. It's an intense sweet sparkling white wine from the Piedmont Region of Italy. It tastes of pineapple and ripe fruits. This just might be as good as a glass of Stella Rosa!
