TASTING NOTE: Bright pink coral color. Aromas of grapefruit zest, fresh cut grass, cherry skins, and bumbleberry with a supple, crisp, light-to-medium body and an even, medium-length wild cherry jam and fertile earth finish with fine, fruit tannins. A pink and cheery alternative to sauvignon blanc. Exceptional. Best Buy. Score - 92 (The Beverage Testing Institute, tastings.com, May 2, 2017) |
