If you can let the wine linger in the glass a bit, a beautiful bouquet of bright red fruit aromatics emerge and you never want to take your nose away. But good luck getting to this point. This wine is way too gulpable with a candied palate leaving behind flavors of cherry, strawberry and watermelon. Wow! So in love! Thanks, @Michael Cruse!

With a bit of a chill on it, is there a better summer picnic wine? I think not.

A wine that vanished in a instant because it's too easy to enjoy. Savory cherry berry stone fruit refresher. With I had more than this one bottle.

Perhaps the most interesting wine all summer. And a great pair with ribs.
