Earthy and spicy, blending cinnamon and mushroom nuances with meaty, dark-berried flavors. Yet despite the rich-sounding flavors, the mouthfeel is fresh and lively. Try it with red meats and surprise your guests.——J.C.(12/1/2004)—— 88

Light and coppery, this easy-sipping rose offers clean, simple flavors of cherry and berry candy. The fine bubbles give the mouthfeel a welcome elegance. The fruit flavors are also pretty, but diffuse. It falls off quickly on the finish, leaving just the slightest impression of brine.——P.G.(12/1/2006)—— 86
