Take It Outside: A Picnic Adventure for Two
If the weather allows, turn your Valentine’s Day date into a laid-back picnic adventure for two. Bring along a bottle of BACA Zinfandel and build a charcuterie board that complements its bold, fruit-forward style. We recommend a bottle of Home Base Zinfandel to bring along for the adventure! Think aged cheeses, cured meats, olives, roasted nuts, and a touch of sweetness like fig jam or dried cherries—all perfect partners to Home Base Zinfandel’s black cherry flavors and subtle spice.
Whether you’re spreading out a blanket at a scenic overlook, relaxing at a favorite park, or even heading to the beach with your charcuterie board setup, BACA Zinfandel fits seamlessly into the moment. It’s a wine that feels equally at home outdoors—approachable, expressive, and ideal for slow sipping while you take in the view and each other’s company.
