Last week, I was invited to attend a wine launch party for Rebel Coast Winery. I had tried their sparkling wine at the LA Wine Fest I went to earlier this year, but this party was for a wine that they didn’t have at the other event.
The party was held at Bodega Wine Bar, which is one of my favorite happy hour spots. I invited a bunch of my friends to come with me, but Kate was the only one who had that evening free. After checking in, we took a picture in front of the step-and-repeat.
The wine that the party was for is called Reckless Love.
It is a blend wine with a mix of Cabernet and Syrah. I typically don’t drink red wine (I like to stick to sparkling wines most of the time), but I have to say that I really enjoyed this one! It was nice and refreshing and not nearly as heavy as I expected it to be. And the bottle was pretty cute too (the label is even glow-in-the-dark!).
Since the wine bottle has a mustache on it, a lot of the party had mustaches. One of the sponsors was Lyft (whose drivers mark their cars with giant pink fuzzy mustaches). There were also mustache temporary tattoos (I grabbed a bunch and brought them to work the next day for my co-workers) and mustache trims available at the party.
And the wine glasses for the event were Mason jars with mustaches on them!
(I really tried to line up the mustache on the glass to my face)
After drinking our drinks and checking out the event a bit, Bodega started to get really crowded. Kate and I wanted to let other people have a chance to take our seats so they could enjoy their drinks, so we headed out.
I had such a fun time that night! It was actually right after the failed beach attempt, so it was nice to have something fun in the day that didn’t get rained out. Thank you to Rebel Coast Winery and LA Wonders for inviting me to check out Reckless Love. I’ll totally be on the lookout for the wine the next time I go wine shopping!
