You know it's bad when they close the liquor store for people's safety for the third day in a row. #gohometruckers

[LCBO @LCBO]

Please note: For the safety of our employees and customers, our stores in Ottawa closed early yesterday. They will remain closed today.

@foodwineclick Thanks for sharing, Jeff!

[Wining with Mel @WiningWithMel]

@savortheharvest nice 👍

[Wining with Mel @WiningWithMel]

@LizGabayMW No, just that everyone has different ideas of what each name means. I think that's what the Nuancier tries to standardize, but I not sure how many people know of it.

[Wining with Mel @WiningWithMel]

Colour can be so subjective, n'est-ce pas? I would categorize this rosé as pale salmon, but I think the Centre du Rosé nuancier may consider it more "peach" or "melon". #roseallday #winophiles

[Wining with Mel @WiningWithMel]

@jillbarth @LizGabayMW I agree with Jill here. I love Languedoc rosé as well.

[Wining with Mel @WiningWithMel]

@Culinary_Cam If you want cold, head to Ottawa, where it was a chilly -26° Celsius (-15° F) this week. That's why I prefer to be in the Caribbean ☺️

[culinary_cam @Culinary_Cam]

According to @vinsdeprovence, “Don’t be fooled by appearances, you don’t choose a Provence rosé by its color, which ranges from pale pink to orange.” Share about the shade of one of your fave Provence rosé wines, #Winophiles.

@LizGabayMW Haha too funny. A tale of two St. Martins!

[Wining with Mel @WiningWithMel]

Hi, it's Mel, blogging on https://t.co/sYUQdKd3B3 from St. Martin in the French West Indies. #winophiles

[Wining with Mel @WiningWithMel]

@foodwineclick This is a great question. So hard to put the distinct feel of these places into words. I love both Provence and Languedoc...and their food and wines!

[Wining with Mel @WiningWithMel]

How amazing does this gratin look?!

[culinary_cam @Culinary_Cam]

I **always** prepare something to eat. LOL. In this case I did what my boys called "French Mac and Cheese." LOL. Pasta au Gratin. Link here -> https://t.co/75dAa9qx0x #Winophiles

[Wining with Mel @WiningWithMel]

@Culinary_Cam Oh wow this brings me back. This was one of my favourite meals as a kid (actually it probably still is).
