Valentine’s Day is almost here and I have two out-of – the box gift suggestions for you. Your dog-loving amore is sure to love the gift of wine (who wouldn’t?) and a gift certificate to the Dog Spa Resort in Desert Hot Springs in California. Ah, I see I have your attention…read on.
The Dog Lovers Wine Club’s motto pretty much says it all, “Love My Dog, Love My Wine. ” This is your place to purchase premium wine and celebrate the unique bond you have with dogs. Each month they’ll deliver a couple of bottles of wine made exclusively for you by award-winning California winemakers. No two of the wines will ever be the same. Each month a new dog illustration is created just for that month’s wine. Much of the wine comes from a small Pinot Noir vineyard near Lompoc, CA although they also source some of their fruit from other vineyards in California. You can also order wines individually without joining the club.
Hugo Sauvignon Blanc
2010 Semi-sweet Sauvignon Blanc, Paso Robles (1.2% RS)
Lightly sweet and tart Sauv Blanc with aromas of poached pears, lemongrass, kiwi, nectarine, with hints of vanilla and sweet tarragon. a great spring/summer quencher, and base for white sangria.
Now that you have the wine, how about a little R&R at the Dog Spa Resort in Desert Hot Springs, CA to go with it? This is an inn created from the ground up for dog lovers. Dogs vacation free with their owners. The owner and inn keeper are outstanding guardians, you’re going to love this place. No size limits or breed restrictions.
