Deep Ruby with aromas of dark fruit, cedar and herb spice. On the palate flavors of cherry, blackberry and currants with herb and nutty floral spice notes. Fine tannins, nice mouthfeel, well balanced with acidity, medium+ finish ending with fruit, mineral, spice and herbs. Nice value! A Fav!

Dark coral pink in color, excellent clarity. Tutti-frutti and strawberry notes in nose. Light cherry flavor (later, cranberry and strawberry flavors emerge), lemon finish with moderate fine-grained skin tannin astringency. Creamy lemon and mineral aftertaste. Refreshingly dry, as advertised. Not terribly complicated or complex but well-made. Not just for Double Bubble chewing gum fans

Shipped from winery. Reddish pink in color, good clarity. Cherry and strawberry notes in nose. Strawberry followed by cranberry flavors with length, mild citric acid wash and minerality on finish. Off dry, minimal tannins. Watermelon and cherry aftertaste. Better with food. Nice varietal character, perhaps too much crispness on finish, but preferences will vary. Tastier as you get used to it

Bubble gum bomb and a bit of cranberry. Too much bubblegum for me - seems to be their MO with this wine for both vintages.
