A Good Monday (Good Luck Gourmet): First time on this for me and a joy to drink. Bright strawberry fruit, off-dry, , lively acidity that leaves it feeling crisp and refreshing. Not showing its age, to me. Enough residual sweetness to handle the red chili oil dumplings and chengdu cold noodles. I kept coming back to this throughout the night and it was just straight tasty. Thanks, MikeATL!

Still holding up very well, and while it may be showing a little sweeter than it did in the past, it still has plenty of acid to pair very well with food. But more than anything else, it is fun and every sip brings a smile.

Still holding strong, crisp strawberry fruit, the nice balance between the off-dry sweetness and acidity makes it a great pairing for my family's tradition of Chinese take-out for Christmas dinner, and it is showing a little more of the poulsard funk than it did in the past. Festive holiday joy in a glass.

My first wine from the Savoie region of France, the 2013 Renardat-Fâche Vin du Bugey Cerdon Sparkling Rosé is a charming demi-sec, with perky bubbles and lilting, expressive notes of red raspberries and juicy Balaton cherries cradled in a bouquet of heirloom roses. It's the color of pint taffeta, that exact shade found in 50s lawn party dresses. The entire bottle speaks of summertime and bounteous ease. Slightly sweet, this bubbly pink should pair nicely with light berry desserts.

Fun sparkler. Bubblegum pink, sweet but not cloying. 7.5% alcohol so next time I'll keep the bottle to myself.
