I get a kick out of Kramer Vineyards showcasing the hybrid Carmine grape, mated from Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignan, and Merlot. This Rosé from a cold Oregon vintage is juicy, unexpectedly floral like a bit of Colombard snuck in (but it didn't), and a li'l spiced w earthy masala spices, especially whiffs of cinnamon. Lamb meatballs alfresco on the patio would be so nice!
