To celebrate John’s 80th, Josh, his brothers Matt and Peter, their wives, and all the grandkids headed out for a rafting trip starting on the lower fork of the Salmon River and ending on the Snake. 4 days, 15 people, 3 generations, and 1 unforgettable adventure. Shoutout to @avalawrence78 and the rest of the fam for the great photos and to @windingwatersrafting for the outstanding experience!

New Recipe: We made Elotes Gård-style! Although there are endless variations, this is the version we keep coming back to! Charred corn, a hit of garlic, tangy whipped crema, a snowstorm of Cotija, plus herbs and a sprinkle of Aleppo — OMG, yum. It’s bright, messy, ridiculously good, and easy to prep. A craveable summer dish that’s perfect with Rosé! Get the recipe at gardwine.com/blog

If you’ve ever heard someone say “only big reds age well,” please feel free to ignore them forever. White wines can age beautifully, and sometimes even more interestingly than reds. The reason isn’t price or prestige. It’s chemistry, intention, and a little patience. This week on the blog, we’re breaking down the styles that truly shine with time. If you've never tucked away a bottle of white wine, consider this your sign! It doesn't take a sprawling cellar or decades of patience—just a little curiosity and the willingness to let a great bottle surprise you. Head to gardwine.com/blog to read more!

Bottling day! #toro🍷
