When creating art, you can find inspiration anywhere. The beauty in a sunset, the simplicity of a landscape, or in the rich, bold flavors of our bourbon barrel-aged wine.

For your next artistic activity, we recommend doing some watercoloring. Watercolor paintings can be one of the most relaxing and artistically rewarding activities you can do. Painting things like flowers, food, trees, or even a self-portrait can be a fun way to spend a cozy night indoors this winter. It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner, or a seasoned expert, expressing yourself is a great way to spend your time.

So pick up some watercolor paper and brushes and let your creativity shine. And while you’re doing it, grab our bourbon barrel-aged Zinfandel. Uncork the bottle and let the art inspire you as you find your muse.

Summer is the perfect time to take a step back from the digital world, and head out into the outdoors. You can lose yourself by listening to the whisper of the trees, or have your breath taken away by a gorgeous view. However you decide to unwind, make your outdoor adventure even better by bringing 1000 Stories Gold Rush Red with you, as there’s nothing better than a little wine in the pines.

Aged in traditional French and American Oak, with a portion finished in charred bourbon barrels, this red blend has a rich, bold flavor with heady notes of spice box and char. All of which makes it the perfect wine to match your adventurous and curious spirit this summer.

SOME TIPS FOR SUMMER SIPPING

  • Host a two-person dinner party with a menu that speaks to the season. The warmer months are perfect for things like charcuterie spreads, chicken and veggie skewers to throw on the barbecue, and refreshing salads (hint: go for summer favorites like watermelon, basil, and tomatoes).
  • To please both red and white wine drinkers and to complement the flavors of your meal, pair your summer feast with our 1000 Stories Bourbon barrel-aged Cabernet or Chardonnay.
  • Take your date al fresco, and enjoy your meal in your favorite outdoor spot under the trees with a picnic blanket. Opt for a good playlist you can bring along with plenty of tunes to inspire conversation.

Do you have any summer picnics planned? Tag us with #1000stories to show us how you’re celebrating the longer days—and evenings—of summer with your bottle of 1000 Stories wine.
