ALL IN THE FAMILY
“Summers are all about Lorenza Rosé,”
says N.Y.-based model Michèle
Ouellet of the wine she and her mother
Melinda Kearney launched in
2008. “In addition to my
modeling, which takes me all
over the world, I wanted to do something
a bit more connected to my roots
here in Napa,” says Ouellet, who is also
working on a jewelry collaboration
with Minor Obsessions. “We chose rosé
because we love it and it’s about
youth.”
