The name "Girl Trap" is not a joke. I am so in love with this wine. It makes me want to throw myself at it, and beg it to date me. Or at the very least, feel me up a couple times. With crunchy, tart cranberry, raspberry, pomegranate and a chiffon fizz, it is a heavenly flirtation in a glass. Les Capriades is redefining "pink panty dropper".

God damn this was good. Raging acid next to about 20 grams of RS. Lots of crunchy pomegranate-raspberry-wild strawberry type fruit.

Strawberry fields forever dropped into that Miss Dior perfume ad Sofia Coppola directed a couple years ago where the young woman gallivants around Paris to the soundtrack of Moi Je Jou.
