In today's episode we put a bow on Idaho Wine Month 2026 by featuring three wines from our friends at Rivaura. The Rosé was just released and so it's highly unlikely it's already sold out HOWEVER, it's not a given as this is one of their fastest moving wines! Visit their Juliaetta tasting room OR their Coeur d'Alene tasting room and say 'hello' to Cooper and tell them Wine Time Fridays sent you! #HappyFriday #ItsWineTime #Cheersing
