Back in January I talked about my love for Cupcake wine and my disdain for gimmicky named wines. Read here. Clearly I'm a hypocrite because now I'm loving Baker's Dozen pinot grigio, and you can't get more gimmicky than that, now can ya?
I'm not a big white wine drinker, but with temps topping 100 degrees, I've been determined to find a bottle that I not only like, but love. Initially this yellow plaid label combined with the words California and juicy caught my eye. Yellow, California and juicy - Why wouldn't I love this wine? And it was on sale. Win win, win win. I bought 2 bottles and headed home to pour myself a glass.
Much to my delight, I really enjoy this wine. It's extremely crisp and perfect on a hot summers day. Oddly enough, you can taste the grapes. I'm not sure I've ever actually tasted grapes in wine before, so this took me a bit off guard and I found myself pleasantly surprised.
Not only am I obsessed with the Baker's Dozen label and kind of want to frame it (weird, I know), but I definitely look forward to drinking more through the end of the summer.

I'm not a big white wine drinker either so I go off recommendations in the summer. I'll have to pick this up, thanks for sharing!
I'm constantly on the hunt for new wines to taste and this one just made the list! It sounds yummy!
I've seen this in the wine aisle before and thought about picking it up. Now I definitely will!
Yum! I'm def going to have to try it! Another white wine I love during the summer is The Naked Grape's Merlot..yum:)))
that is such a cute label, i will definitely have to try!
I'll have to try it, thanks for the recommendation! Love the label! haha
I love this wine too!!! And the Teet had it 2/$10.. Done and done.
I love Pinot, I will have to see if I can find this here in KY....I also like the Cupcake Angel Food :)
I love the cupcake line as well, so I'm excited to try this one. Thanks!
I am obsessed with Cupcake Red Velvet. It has been my 'go-to' for transitioning from white wine to red wine and I LOVE it. I used to be all about the Sauvignon Blanc, but wasn't a fan of the Cupcake version. I would probably have been sucked in by the yellow gingham label on this wine though as well, I'll have to give it a try!
