Light bodied with sangria essence. White pepper and purple flowers on the nose. Spirited oranges and red fruit. Red raspberry, pomegranate and cranberry. Fun summer porch sipper. Like an unefferveced Beaujolais. The zip and complexity is not there, but it’s a great warm weather red.

Light bodied, yet rich in color, a very purple-magenta, I didn't think this wine, made from Valdiguié grapes, was like Gamay at all, as said the bottle. I would call this is an easy, patio-sipping red, dominated by floral and berry aromatics, juicy flavors of blackberry, blueberry, cranberry sauce, and pomegranate, and mild tannins and acidity. This wine would also work as a base for a dessert sauce or paired with Thanksgiving dinner.

Interesting but probably better for summer days than winter nights. Very light.

Bright and fruity with decent structure, if a bit short on the finish. Stick it in the fridge - pretty refreshing and fun for $8.

Gamay, but not gamay. Tastes just as artificial if not more
