The nose brings together cherries, boysenberries, watermelon,
and creamy vanilla. Elements of tart cherry, bramble berry
preserves, and watermelon flow into suggestions of summer
flowers and vanilla. Round and ripe, open a bottle with
an appetizer of beet chips with spicy honey mayo.

Review:
A mix of strawberries, cherries, and pomegranates combine
with elements of funky, floral earth on the nose. The
palate takes shape with flavors of strawberry jam, ripe
cherry, and cranberry sauce accented by floral spice and
earthy elements. A lighter-style Pinot with a balanced
acidity, pomegranate glazed salmon would make a nice pairing.

Review:
Notes of cherries and strawberries mingle with hints of
bubble gum on the nose. Lots of strawberry flavors comes
forth on the palate along with candied cherry. Quite friendly,
with a touch of sweetness, it's the bottle to open with
a honey glazed chicken.
