  Ok, what about that color? Like Crazy Eddie, it's insane!!! An otherworldly almost dayglow candy cherry. Could it be radioactive? No, it's just the product of fer-mentation, ie it's a rose from the indigenous fer servadou grape.
  
  Pretty nose of raspberries and flinty minerals. Light bodied and quite dry, with attractive raspberries and a stony, dry impression on the finish.
  
  This wine will make a statement on the table with it's wacky vivid color, and back it up with its taut fer-vent flavors.

  What a bodacious color! Hot pink? Blood orange? Ruby grapefruit? Anyway, a modest nose of cherry-raspberry with floral overtones. Lemony palate with good acidity balancing the fruit. Good with summer hors d'oeuvres on the dock.
