I’m an unabashed fan of this wine- gently fizzy, crisply acidic, it is filled with plum, wild strawberry, raspberry, red current, black cherry and red cherry. Made by tank method so it is all about fruity primary aromas and flavors and it goes with a huge array of foods from pasta to porchetta.

Delicious, refreshing, bright raspberry sparkler with only a hint of sweetness. Sure to be a crowd-pleaser, need to keep this one in the home cellar.

Light, tart, and a hint of ripe fruit. Chugging lambrusco.

Really light (but not tart!) and kind of the perfect thing to be sipping in San Francisco when you still feel like a red but it's 60 degrees outside.

Quite fun. Refreshing and fruit forward with candied grapefruit and raspberry that are not sweet though. Sprightly. Someone was dancing with limes nearby. A limey backdrop of freshness that makes this good with spicy or savory. I want to re-try with Taco Bell fries when they resurface, in the meantime my veg-fiend self is gobbling my usual gallons of raw cauliflower dipped in Sriracha. Y’all, my food/wine writer life is so glam n lit.
Or not. But the drinks are good and the veggies are your friend.

Pale, almost a rosé. Extremely gulp able, fizzy delight.

Sparkling dry crane apple. A little bit of rose petal on aroma. Very nice.
