Tasting notes: We love having lunch outside in summer and a great summer salad paired with Rosé is our idea of a perfect summer lunch. The bright acid on the wine balances the bold dressing.
Serena's tips: This definitely serves 8 - 12 people as a side dish. Make the eggs in advance to cut down on the day of cooking time.
