Oh, Those Summer Reds! (June 8 – June 14, 2014)

What would summer be without vibrant bold red? We’d miss our strawberries, watermelons, pomegranates and raspberries! Accents of summer reds are most distinctive with the growth of red poppies; but, when it comes to setting our summer picnics, our June patio brunches and our sunny garden parties, even Renoir understood the power of red. Just enough makes a memorable masterpiece! Breakout your passionate urge for rouge and toast during a crimson sunset with a wonderful Bordeaux, Pinot Noir or Malbec. © Kelly McBride Loft
