happy blizzard happy hour!
Snow pummeling down? Grapefriends don’t care. They grab a bottle and settle in for some flame action. PS the sock pic isn’t mine but apparently they’re Huf socks. Lots of people on instagram were asking so figured I’d pass along! Continue reading

happy post-turkey port happy hour
Tawny port with roasted nuts is absolute perfection. It’s often described as having a roasted almond flavor, so pair it up with some actual roasted almonds and you can imagine how awesome it is. Throw in a fig or two, and you’re good for lots of end of meal happiness. Keep the tags coming @grapefriend … Continue reading

Gamay is the grape … Continue reading

happy fantasy draft happy hour
It’s draft night! Seriously, the old beer and football pairing can suck it. This is how we do it at Grapefriend HQ. The plan was to get some other people from my league over and ply them with tons of wine so that when the draft starts they’ll be wasted and I’ll be able to grab … Continue reading
happy still summer happy hour!
Some crazy person posted a photo of a stew she was cooking with the caption “Ready for fall!” First of all, we’ve got weeks of warm weather left. Second of all, never be ready for something so horrific. To that point, who’s still keeping the rosé drinking going strong? My top choices are on Cosmo today, paired with … Continue reading
