March 23, 2012 - Strawberry and maple syrup on the nose, great silky mouthfeel, light fruit on the palate, short finish. I was surprised how much I liked this wine.

July 14, 2011 - Little on the nose, but surprisingly refined fruit in the mouth. Truncated finish. Light tannins. Not bad at $8.99 in my expensive boutique grocery.

March 29, 2011 - Dark Garnet in the glass, with aromas of strawberry and raspberry, with a little sour cherry. Light and acidic in the mouth.
